I think they used S2Kennmark's AP1 map as a base - the car idles great and it starts predictably but the starts take more starter effort (slightly longer time) than stock.

A good tuner is key.
The guy I plan to go to is the best around PA and NJ. Hes booked up usually 3 months in advance.

Anyway, I want to get someones base map so that I can install them myself and then drive to the dyno. But this wont be until after winter.

I'll be glad to give you mine (AP2) but it's at your own risk.

By the way, I know it's been said here before but going back to stock from this would be a very major project.

im ap2 also.

i can only imagine how much of an issue going back to stock would be. how hard was routing the fuel lines?

I paid somebody to do it, not cause it was hard but I wanted someone with experience to deal with fuel in case of leaks. There is not much re-routing, just new hoses for fuel and return that connect to the ITB fuel rail/pressure regulator.

Honestly, to me the hardest part was removing the stock stuff - I know everyone says it's easy but it took 3 of us several hours - perhaps we didn't have the best tools - we also took the opportunity to remove the heater stuff - which I doubt you will do in Jersey.

yeah i wan't the heater. i dont care about the ac, but i need my heat in the winter. thats why i want the jenvey setup, it alows you to maintain the heat and most of the oem hook ups. i was talking to the guys at hayward about it one day, and their set up is pretty much the identical thing to the jenveys.

it is Jenvey, and so is mine - the manifold just needs modification for the coolant tempererature sensor which both Hayward and Fuji do - I found Fuji Racing to be cheaper.

no, I'm talking about the whole system. Call Jimmy at Fuji Racing.
