Yeah for sure, I've sent them an e-mail to confirm. Thanks.
Crazy would you go for the stock Bosch injectors and run the GL4 or the KOJO if you had to choose?

Yeah I'm not completely decided yet, but Heaths products are proven, the KOJO is a hot tune that I would be running if I had their A Team Turbo. Either way, someday if I get enough strength into this motor I will invest in an A Team or squeeze a Variable Geometry on to it.

GL4 is a very polished tune that is very good with pretty low egts but you cant customize to your specs. KOJO tune allows you to do pretty much whatever you want and is cheaper. most likely not tested as much as GL4 but there good tunes with no complaints ive heard.

Well Woody you use the Kojo would you recommend it? For me I'm liking the fact that the GL4 does have cool egt's. Know anything about ssd's number 9 resistor? And Bill Heath really wants me to put in a set of those Bosch glow plugs too, do you like yours? He says if you live where its cold (minus 35 C tonight actually) that you use the Duratherm plugs.

the 9 resistor is just for PMD it gave little more fuel and power but you won't feel it

Might be a good thing to run with a bigger computer though or not? And to feed new injectors?

you may have #er 9 all ready unplug the PMD and look in pmd plug and you seeit and it should have #er 1-9 on it 1 being the lowest 9 being the highest

i love my duratherms. hardly any smoke at 15 degree start up without plugging in. resistor size doent matter. you could switch #1 to #9 and you wouldnt notice at all the power increase or decrease. according to other people of their accounts with the gl4 my egts are a tad higher but beside that i love it. ive never ridden or drove another 6.5 beside mine so i cant really comment on how it compares to other tunes
