You bet they will with a lot of timing and 50 lbs of boost...

I was very curious to see if I put my bigger turbo on and cram more air in my motor if it'd burn almost all the fuel and clean up the dirty 4x14s... and my theory seemed to work cuz they seemed to be runnin pretty dang clean if you ask me especially with a load. The new setup runs really good and im pretty curious about the hp numbers now with a lot more air mixed with these pods. Luckily I should find out in a few more weeks... now this makes me more curious as to what would happen when I put the twins on

Im just out to prove that there is a lot of power to be made by the lil dirty bashed on injectors. Add a lot of air and it'll surprise you.

The are pretty clean. I bet if you put a good tight trans in there it won't look like that.

Sweet pull by the way.

Hows the head hOlding up just the studs?

Yeah im waitin for this tans to call er a night before I get this 47rh built. Im kinda still savin up too.

I put 60 lb valve springs and arp head studs in on thursday and this pull was saturday. I did them one at a time without pulling the head. I torqued them to 133 and then did a few hot retorques on them til the nuts didn't turn anymore since the studs will stretch from the heat. I figured it was good to go and this was the first time I opened it all the way up. Im surprised everything held and I didn't blow a boot. Head gasket is still holding fine...

I thought I read on one of the charts that they were 4x14s and were 62% bigger than stock so thats what I've been going by. For being the little dirty, and hot injectors everyone claims they are, I am making some good power with them and am very happy for what I paid for them.
