Default 30# svo

hey, ive got a quick ?... If i was to install 30# SVO injectors, would i need an immediate tune right after? or would it even idle to drive to a tuning place? thanks for your help

I have a buddy with an 01 Z06 that tried swapping in a set of 30# just to make it to the dyno, car ran fine for a day then started flooding, stalling everywhere, and fouled a brand new set of plugs.

As easy as the injectors are to swap out, I'd get it to the dyno with the stock injectors and then swap then on the spot.

I just swapped my injectors for 30lb ers and I have put 300 miles on my car, I wouldnt reccommend this, but mines sitting until I can get it tuned. Too much driving could wash down the rings from what Ive heard

yeah i just talked to my tuner and he told me to get some 30lb injectors for my tune with my tr224. they said to drive to their shop and they would let me change them there and then get it tuned that day. you WILL burn up your spark plugs if you do not tune it for bigger injectors.

I only changed the IFR on my car, and it is running great with the SVO30s.

If you have MS Excel, it is really easy...

You will need a fuel disconnect tool for the one line. But I tried all the ones at AutoZone and none would work.

So I just carefully moved the whole fuel rail assembly around without messing up the line.

This might not be the correct way, but I could not get that damn line disconnected.
