I looked in on the install just about every day. I wouldn't do this at home unless you have one hell of a shop and tools to do the mods. I recommend a shop like FCCT. They have done many installs and knew what they were doing.

Well I have a full engine shop at my disposal...10 lifts..machining tools...etc etc..

I just dont have the electrical knowledge to do it right. I need someone with tech skills .. I know I could tear it apart and bolt it up .. its not rocket science.

Drilling the Harmonic balancer

Re-routing hoses and other parts on the front of the engine.

I don't know anything about the electrical parts either. It was just easier having a shop that has done it before perform the work

On your dyno sheet, you air to fuel ratio looks like its going lean up top. Are you losing fuel pressure or is the just the Ati tune??

That would only happen with a cam and/or running dangerously high boost. Low 500's is what everyone else got with just headers.

Mine scrapes quite often. I figure the more I drive it the more it will file itself down.

To be honest with you, I couldn't answer that. The Air/fuel meter reads right on during the runs. I will check with the guys at the shop.
I'm not technical enough....yet. I'm still learning. Thanks for the feedback.

12.7 seems really lean for a FI setup....The posted graph shows 12.0 till the end where it leans out to 12.7...

Why do you have to drill into the harmonic balancer?

The kit used on my car was "Vertical Doors Inc." I did a lot of work researching the doors and word of mouth said these guys were the best. The doors are great. Makes the car stand out. Just remember, it takes a little inside door triming, so think hard before doing it. You can't see the mods from the outside.

To be honest, I'm not sure. I believe you have to pin the harmonic balancer to the crank because the harmonic balancer only has a key. It could slip. ATI provides the drill bit for drilling.

Right now I'm running 325's on the back. No tubbing required. I will need drag slicks for the track. On the road, unfortunately, I just have to be careful.

Actually there is no key in the stock balancer. Its a press fit from the factory. If you don't pin(install a key) in the balancer, the extra load on the belt system is known to spin off the balancer and bolt causing crank and power steering rack damage
