Default My new Set Up--More performance

well I took a trip to more performance this week and I'm going with Kooks 1 3/4 full length stainless steel headers along with the kooks y pipe. From the y I'm going to get the flowmasters 80 series kit that hooks up the the kooks y pipe.

Then I'm going to buy the P1-SC simple kit----just the hosing, turbine, etc. none of the programming or that stuff. which is around $4200 I think they said that we should go with either 38lb/hr or 40lb/hr injectors and we of course will be buying LS1Edit so that we can see what tuning was done after more performance does their editing. I think we are going to go with the 38lb/hr injectors and from what the guys were saying i might as well upgrade my fuel pump, so that if i wanted more power later i wouldn't have to go digging on other parts.

It was kind of funny cuz more performance was actually out of power when we were there friday (oct 29th) so they basically talked to us the whole time.

How much would the 38lb/hr injectors drop my gas mileage??


P.S.
I would recommend more performance to anyone that wants to set up their car, the guys are knowledgeable and very nice. they even let us take a peak at the "secret car" that I'm sure yall have heard about.

With a proper tune the injectors will not hurt your gas mileage at all. Sounds like a good set-up.....should make good power on a reasonable budget.
