    Risk/benefit, post mod install trip to Tune.....?

    Looking at having a few pals help me install the following;

    KB BAP

    63# Injectors

    Diablo Mafia

    Zex Wet Kit with purge and window switch.

    LC-1 Wideband kit

    The question is being that I'm gonna try to do most of this myself, how wise would it be to drive the 40 miles from Inver grove up to see Casey at HiTech for the tune after these installs?

    Of course I wouldn't be boosting, or spraying during this trip at all, and I do have the preditor chip with a tuner, and will have the wideband in?

    You think I could just lean it back some with the 63#'s, but leave it pretty rich and just drive at 50 MPH up to High Tech without causing any damage right?


    Comments?


    TIA......

    Leave the stock injectors in. They are quick and easy to change. You would be running way too rich. Put them in at the dyno.

        Or. Bring your preditor up to me, and Ill zing in a quick 63# injector tune for you to drive it up to the shop with..

        Just make sure that you have one of the preditor tunes installed into your vehicle, so that I am able to download the original back-up.

          Roger, probably the same for the mafia as well I'd assume?

              Hmmm...guess I'm not really sure how that works quite yet?

              The present loaded tune is a custom preditor tune from AZ, is that the backup tune you will need to modify for the new 63's, then load it on the tuner for me to load into the chip?

              TIA.....

                That works just fine. With the tune from AZ in your car, your PCMs original back-up is installed on the preditor. I can take a copy of that, and write you a tune to get you to the shop. Using your exhisting preditor.. Just bring me your preditor, as it sits with the AZ tune in your car.

                      I'll see if Chris is heading up there this coming week, I'm out of town with Son to do some fishing for a week and then the install begins!

                      Thanks again for the help!

                          Because I don't have a trailer?
