2) Yes you will need to upgrade your fuel system. To be safe get 30# injectors for a stock motor, 36-42# for a modified motor, a bigger fuel pump...I have a 190, but I also have a FMU. If you aren't upgrading your injectors, you WILL need a FMU. 3) Get an ignition with a Boost Retard. I have the MSD-6BTM, and love it....make sure you get a rev limiter for 6000 rpm too, cause over spinning will burn the bearings out on the powerdynes. **How many miles do you have, and what are your current mods? ------------------ Dustin Saleenized 89 GT,428 rwhp,TFS Street Heat Intake,TFS TW Heads,TFS #2 cam,BD-11A 9 psi,FRPP 1.6 rr's,BBK 70mm TB,Pro-M 75mm Bullet,MSD 6BTM, FMS 9mm wires,BBK longtubes,BBK Short H-pipe,American Thunder cat back,3.55's 12.3@119 [This message has been edited by SaleenGTS (edited 06-15-2001).] |

I would have to agree w/ saleengts, except I think the MSD6AL is just as good as the 6BTM and will save you some $$$.

They pretty much summed it up. Just don't forget to unhook the hose going from the intake manifold to the breather on your valve cover. If you don't, all 9#'s of boost will go directly into your CRANKCASE! Can you say blown rear main seal?

bada$$lx---Yeah, the MSD6AL is a great ignition...the same box as the 6BTM, but he will need a retard, and that is what the BTM is for. It will save $$ in the long run, because he will need the ignition to burn the excess fuel, and also the retard so he doesn't detonate. the 2-in-1 is cheaper than buying one then the other, IMO.
