Looking closer at my car and doing a lot a research I have found that I have a 2.8 pulley and 42# injectors an aem air intake as well as a canned tune from intense racing.
Looks like most everything else is stock engine wise.
What do I need to look for to make sure this car is not going to blow up/ over heat break earlier etc etc.
Right now it's my dd and stick around 2-3 rpm ( 11 mpg will make you a miser on the pedeal )
Can you list in order of importance?
Define hard,? I'm pretty sure I don't as like I said I don't go over 3k rpm ( now a guess 4k ) and don't hit over 50% throttle
I might be able to get injectors this weekend
How time critical is this? Spending $700 for tune and injectors just became out of my price range unless I want to live in a storage unit
( got edged out a great living situation by a girl so an apartment is kinda high on the list )
Temp gauge has never gone above half sense I bought it
For the tune, $600 is a ripoff. For that, you could buy HPTuners and learn yourself. The ZZP canned tune is fine for 90% of the people, and the other 10% have access to HPT.
For injectors, you don't need "rails", any injector you would need fits the LSJ rail. Only thing to worry about is connectors. Make sure the injector plug and harness plug match.
If you are on 42# and a 2.8 I would be amazed if you aren't getting lean codes. Chances are if you put a 3.0 on it would work fine and be safer from blowing.

Still working on the clutch, next is injectors. Any one herd of the Bosch 650cc split stream injectors? There is a post about them on the colbolt forum
They seem a little more expensive but worth it.
To me personally, the only "expensive but worth it" injectors are ID1000's. WAAAAY beyond what you'd need. I only see 65% IDC running my turbo setup, 22psi, a BRFPS, and E30.
so Ill be working on getting the injectors soon and probably bite the bullet and walk to work for a week or two while zzp has my computer
thanks for the help so far this forum has been invaluable. probbly would have had to take a massive loss on this car and sell it if it was not for your help

this forum has been great I started here by accident when I was looking up some codes that I inherited few years ago
it's been more helpful than having the old Saturn dealer in town :grin2:
