Default injectors (pics/vid)

Well i put my BOSCH 42# injectors in the Camaro now. The car runs really rough and super rich. If you get on it, the car falls on its face and nearly stalls because its getting 50% more fuel than the computer thinks its getting. On friday I'll have my tuning adjusted for the new injectors as well as some new nitrous jets too!

Oh yeah.....almost forgot.... I now have the LS6 intake and ported/polished TB on too. Got a deal i couldn't pass up on both, so decided to go for it. Smile




Fuel rails w/o injectors.....where did they go??






Oh, here they are








The new green top BOSCH look sinister on those rails








With everything put back together, sittin pretty on top of my new LS6 intake too








Think its running a little rich? LOL








Video of idle. Kinda sounds like I have a cam now. Sweet.

I would highly suggest not driving, or even running, your car with those injectors and no tune. You could wash the cylinders because it is VERY rich. I was told by two of the biggest tuners in my area to not even drive the car to them for a tune when I put my green tops in.

I just had to cut the zip ties on my purge line so i could move it out of the way.

Yea i know i shouldn't drive it, which is why the car is sitting right now. It will get tuned in the next few days.
