Mike, I talked to my cousin and he is willing to wait to see if you need bigger injectors. Anytime frame on when you guys plan on tuning. We just want the car done for August so we got awhile.

we should have the turbo on in the next couple weeks and it should tell us if we are out of injector (which we will be) so i should have them out sometime july so august doesnt look like a problem. THe 408 fired up yesterday, so the break in process has begun

How many miles do you have to put on the new engine before you can put the turbo on?
