I also bought the 160's before I took my car back to Matt to dyno last time.
IMO its just too risky to try them when there are other injectors that are not too much more $. It also isnt going to be just "time" driving. The driving conditions are going to impact how the injectors act also. Matt and I beat on my car pretty much all day on the dyno and they performed flawlessly. I took the car out that night when I got home and beat on it again all night and no troubles at all on "open" roads. My problems started as soon as I got stopped at a couple red lights in town the next day. Sitting idle for a few minutes on a warm day is going to be trouble and they dont give any warning. Running perfect one minute and the next minute running so lean the car wont hardly run at all.

currently trying to hash out the legal side of it, but im going to auction the truck and keep what i put into it and donate the rest to Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, i donate to them a few times a year with dyno day and raffles and ****.
over 800 people from sloppy are saying they will buy tickets, at 100 a pop, i am assuming ALL of them wont but even if a quarter do we will get TONS of money for CFF
ill update this thread when we can figure out how to get it all ironed out and working but basically 100 dollars gets you the chance to win this truck, and excess goes to a great foundation.

I guess you lost the loving feeling for this project, and it's time to move on to the next one, huh? Will it be the wife's truck now, or something else you have in mind?

most raffles for a donation need to have a 501c3 non profit to be legal. You may need to check with your local CFF to see if it can be done under their 501c3...that way the people that buy tickets can also claim a tax exemption...
I read somewhere on FB that you where bored with it and it was time to move on...this seems like a great way to do that!
if it happens, I would be down for it.
