2.9 and 60s

How would my set up run with 60s? I am starting to kind of feel that a dual pass will be a waste of money. I just seems like a hassel to install and I question how much I will benefit from it.

You guys think I should just get 60s before my tune??? just playin with the idea

the dual pass is worth it when you are running a additonal h/e, more benefit can be seen then

I will pay somebody to install the dual pass....do you guys think it is worth what I will pay for it? if you had to choose 60s or dual pass (tune I will get either way), which would it be?

think safe useable power is better than more power some of the time

I know it doesn't "add" power but will my car pull harder and gain any in this head to head competition I have going with my buddy?

it will pull harder with the custom tune becuase instead of running a 10.0 or richer afr you can run something like a 11.5 to 11.8 which in turn will make more power

no i meant idc's(injector duty cylces) their probably around 90% right now since u have a 2.9 pm stage 2 tune and the 60's will give it more room to work with...making them work less harder. haha well obviosly it would pull harder with a tune....i just didnt know u were getting a tune also haha dont mind me tonight im out of it
