you "could" do it.... but your trims are going to go crazy on you. Just dont go over 3k rpms and dont hit PE.....

im wondering how your washed out ringlands would look after 20 miles of fuel dumping.

wow, another harrisburg person. what shop are you taking it to in dillsburg?

yea, now that i think about it, thats a long drive on the higways from here to dillsburg. and youd have to get on the gas to merge and what not. I make that drive everyday and you cant just putter along those roads.

nice. i probably havent seen you since your over in Iraq. but i live just down off of lingelstown rd by the elementary school.

Driving untuned on 83 and 11/15 would be brutal if you couldnt get on the gas. plus its underconstruction now so its a damn mess at the interchange by the mall.

the goal is to kill backpressure. you're talking about possibly losing velocity, but getting rid of backpressure is not a bad thing.

why not just take a basic tool set and replace the injectors in the parking lot? Its maybe a 20 min job.

yea id drive to the place, and do the injectors there...

If your smart enough to release fuel pressure, there shouldnt be much of a mess, if at all..

Takes 20 minutes to do.

yeah i agree with you too, i'll just have to put the rail off after releasing the pressure and then take some petroleum jelly for the o-rings
