            Need some opinions. Right now I'll be running the t3 with gtx ecu and injectors with a code rx7 turbo 2 vaf. Should I sell the gtx injectors and get some 460cc rx7 ones instead? I only planned on running 10psi with the gtx ones but since the motor and crap isn't in the car yet should I just start off with the bigger ones jut in case I decide 10psi just isn't enough lol.

                well if you can tune the 460s properly, then go for that. I just think you'll have some rich conditions out of boost.

                  I'd start with the GTX injectors, since they'll run properly for sure.

                  The RX7 injectors will need something to tune with. That's 100 more ccs that your ECU isn't aware of. It'll be pig rich, unless you do some creative work with an FMU or something. And you know how i feel about FMUs. If you're going to use the 460s, may as well start shopping for a megasquirt setup now.

                      I can help you with an FMU setup, just know that i'm against it.

                      I'd just roll with the 360s until you can afford to properly run the 460s later, though.

                        FMU lol, I don't know if I'd go there or not, you'd be better off with a rising rate fpr since you can tune the idle psi to something close to normal.

                        FMU is technically the same thing...but I've heard no issues with the RRFPR, and horror stories about the FMU.

                        just my suggestion.
