Re: First Performance Mod for RB20DET?
There isn't any need for bigger injectors if you don't have any mods. Period.
First, fix the efficiency problems with the stock parts like the intercooler, exhaust, etc. Then get some way to tune it.. Then start making it better.
If you're running into the end of the comfort zone with the stock injectors, upgrade them. But don't just change stuff to change stuff, have a plan and stick to it. I'm not sure why so many people have a stock engine and immediately go with bigger injectors and fuel pump, it's not necessary until you actually max out the stock setup, so why not spend your time and money doing something more worthwhile?

I know the guy who did the swap
. He's not the dumbest motherfucker ever....
If you are ever having a hard time finding a part, PM me.
There are only 2 parts I know of off the top of my head that you can't get at either an autozone, nissan dealership or junk yard.
