U got bigger injectors?  fuel pump? cooler? any of = NOOOOO!!! just speak with tuner and book in asap. 

It wont kill it but best to not thrash it either...

No worris mate,

Been there like many others before me. 

 

I ended up with a blown engine in the end..

Something sooo small can make a big problem with a modified car...

Just get it back to the shop and let the pros fine tune it and she will be fine.

You can use a wideband o2 sensor to check your air fuel ratio.

 

Expect to pay around the $300 mark for a sensor, module and gauge. 

 

I have one permanently fitted.

 

Definitely don't change your tune if you don't know what you are doing. 

 

Ironically if you loaded the factory tune with larger injectors it will run rich.

Hahaha true dat puff. 

Though probs worse then how it is now yes?

 

And why pay $300 for something when the file loaded can be tweaked to fix for usaully free if its a tune related issue from the same tuna?

 

Wont argue with u though as u know a bit about a bit :surrenderwave:

It probably wouldn't run with the standard tune and the big squirters.

Well I can tell u my 62lb file wont run my id1000s.

So my thoughts where that putting a stock file in against a modded fuel system would be a very very bad idea and probs wouldnt run anyway.

But im still learning these engines where puff seems to know a lil bit.
