I understand but, those are coming from the supercharger dealer not mine. That’s why I come here and ask for advice or help. Anyways, the supercharger dealer is called supercharger4less.
If an FI dealer is recommending stock injectors on a boosted application then you need to walk away no questions asked. Call Terry @TeamBeefcakeRacing or the Lethal Performance guys. The packages that they offer are tried & true for a reason. Do it right the first time or you're going to end up with a serious money pit of a car.

Also, if you're going to go Procharger, just pull the trigger on the P1X. There is plenty of information about how well this unit works on this forum.

I'll echo everyone else. FInd a new dealer and a new shop. Terry at Beefcake for dealer, and Lund/PBD for tuning. Do 95lb injectors DW or ID with a BAP.

If you can be patient. beefcake offers some crazy good deal around any holiday. I bet he'll have a killer deal around the 4th of july.

So I went back to the shop and now the mechanic says if you’re looking for power you need an injectors and fuel pump after I mentioned it smh. I’m doing a supercharger and that alone should tell you I’m looking for power. This guy is an ass.

I’m calling terry and see what he can do for right now. I was hoping I’m not going to install it myself because I’m busy.

:thumbsup: Awesome. Terry is the man when it comes to this stuff. If you end up pulling the trigger on the HO, I would recommend considering the Stage2 intercooler upgrade. It does get HOT here in Texas and it's cheap insurance. Doesn't hurt that it's also helpful in the future if you want to turn up the boost. I know the $ starts adding up when you do all the little upgrades here and there, but in most cases everything is well worth it. Can't go wrong with P1X + the larger IC.

Since you're considering the ProCharger route and learning about everything needed to jump into FI, I'd recommend taking a look at ahl395's build log. He posted here a few replies back and has a link in his signature. Great stuff if you want to dive in and take a look at a clean build.

Yep he definitely did gave me a few pointers to look at along with everyone in this group. I’m going to buy it tomorrow and I’ll upgrade if it’s necessary. I’m going P-1X because it’s a better unit. Are you from Texas and what part? This car will idle most of the time in the garage lol.

Buying tomorrow? Sounds great, be sure to post up some pics of your build when it's all wrapped up. I am from Texas and I'm in Houston.

Yep tomorrow and probably takes 2 weeks for completion. I do head down that direction once a month just to eat fried chicken at jollibee and it’s a 3 1/2 hr drive lol. High PSI owner studied tuning in Houston area. I was actually going to take my car to Serious HP down there but the price and distance are out range. I don’t know how good they’re though.

Skip the BAP and put a DW400 in the tank. Less money, more reliable, no wiring involved, and the pump is designed to flow the extra fuel you need instead of overworking the stock pump.

I read about someone having warm start issues with the DW400 because of no check valve or something?
