Default TSP 231/237 & Patriot 5.3 Stage II Combo

I have a 2000 TA that was putting down around 339/350 when I dyno'd and they guy only took it to 5200 rpm.

I'm adding the TSP 231/237 & Patriot 5.3 Stage II Combo along with an ASP pulley.

I never really thought about fuel since I wasn't doing nitrous but with a 2000 will I have problems feeding it with stock injectors???

You should be fine. Your injectors should handle around 500 hp.

I'm not too sure about that...he has a 2000 which has the smaller 26# injectors. He will probably be at or very close to their limit, I would change to a set of 30# or similar just to be sure.

my 98 injectors are at about 90-95% duty cycle with a similar combo so you'll probably be on the ragged edge.

you are incorrect, 99-00 cars have 26.8 #'ers verse the 28.8#'ers on the 98 and 01-02 cars.

i'd at least upgrade to the 28#'ers, TSP has them for w/ fuel rails for 60 bucks IIRC.

My bad. I had it backward. Sorry.

Alcohol was clouding my brain.

Im running 26#ers and made 413rwhp. They were over 80% duty cycle but not much. I also run a Walbro pump and this helps a little by raising the pressure a little.
