Stage 1's use less high pressure oil than a standard AD-Code Split Shot. In fact, I've run injectors as big as 400cc on a stock HPOP (detuned of course) and had no problem maintaining ICP. One thing I will advise... If you think Stage 1's are going to be the last injector you plan to buy, then that's fine. However, if you're the kind of person who is hard to keep satisfied and will continue to build on your truck as things get a little boring, get the largest injectors you can afford and just have them detuned to meet your application configuration (HPOP, Turbo, etc.) as this will save you considerable expense in upgrade in the long run. We can easily change the tuning as you make subsequent improvements to the vehicle.

Take care.
Thanks Bill. I will talk to you about it when I am getting close (probably a month or 2). I thought about stage 3 (hybrids) detuned but a few told me to just go with stage 1; so that was my thinking. Are the injectors detuned through your tuning, or on the injector itself?

I have an 03 with PMR's. In theory I would like to go with as much as possible without losing fuel mileage. I also do not think I want to dump a bunch into big oil, fuel, turbos, etc.

IIRC I can only push 400 hp on PMR's. I already think I have egt issues and do not want to be making that worse either. I do not remember if I mentioned it to you or on this forum, but I can hit 1250* by the time I hit 50mph and normal drive temps can be 800*. Seems excessive to me.

I was going to get autoenginuity to see check my HPOP to make sure its not weak or anything. If it needed to be replaced; thats where the T500 came in.

I will have to give you a call when I get closer so you can help me decide on what I really need. Never can have too much, but I also do not want to jeapordize economy/temps. I need to play with your chip a bit too before more mods. Need to figure out what tunes I really like so we know what cutom tunes will be needed for my FU chip.
