what about fuel pump or injectors....or timing chain......I'm going to order all the little **** before the h/c package......so it won't be such a hit on the bank account at once

I would look at fuel pump and injectors. My stock pump rolled over and died just a month after install of H/C.

Depends on how much power your looking at making.

Most likely your going to need new injectors to fit into that cute little 80% duty cycle thingy. I didn't do a fuel pump, still running strong as far as I know. Might be something to do in the future though
