I'd skip on the 72lb injectors and get ID1000's. It's going to be fun!

Nice, you'll love the boost in power. Save up for tires though

I agree!
No point in getting injectors that are "just enough".
Love my ID1000s!

Unless you're planning on going all out on the engine in the future, the 72's will be way more than enough. I run 60's on mine and at 600 rwhp, am getting nowhere near max duty cycle. Even the old tune, at 650 rwhp, the 60's were far more than needed.

If it's a manual trans car, and HPP tunes it, I predict it will make between 610 and 630 at the wheels. It will be ridiculously fun at the track and racing in Mexico, but it won't be fun to drive everyday. You will take it back to them at least 3 times for retuning before they get tired of jacking with you and you get frustrated, let the car sit for 3 months, and finally end up at Gearheads to see if they can straighten out the mess.
If it's a manual car, and Gearheads tunes it, I predict it will make between 580 and 610 at the wheels, and it will drive nearly like stock, just with a bunch more power. You will learn to love your car again and wonder why you spent all that time trying to get it right, when you should have just gone there in the first place.
Ask me how I know this! LOL!

LOL! ^^ This guy is a good example to learn from about the setup though. You have been running yours over a year now right?
