injector question

fc nut · 06-20-2012, 10:04 AM

I have an 84 se. If I do a mild street port it,will the stock injectors and ecu be able to handle it? or do I need to go stand alone?

I'd imagine you'd be fine with a mild street port. Best thing to do would be to put a wideband on it with the ported engine and see what the mixture is at. If its on the lean side you could probably get away with upping the fuel pressure a bit to compensate...although I can't see it being that lean.

right now, my car has a s4 n/a engine in it and a coolant seal is blown. the original se engine that i removed can be rebuilt with just an o ring kit. i was thinking while i have it tore down,i might as well up the power a bit before i put it back together. i'm still not sure of what i'm doing yet,i'm just looking at my options.
