[QUOTE="INFRNL, post: 1535134, member: 9835"] Thanks. I have always wondered if I even made the right choice in injectors. Recently have read about 80/200% nozzles being better.I almost went with 250/200's initially but figured with PMR's they were overkill. I probably should have done a little more research before getting my second set of 250/100's for my zf6 project. The motor has factory forged rods but not sure bigger injectors would be worth it in a 6spd. I have also thought about swapping motors...putting the forged rod motor in my 03 with bts tranny and putting the pmr motor in the 76 project with zf6, but that's a lot of work. Not sure if there is much to gain from factory forged to pmr's. I thought there used to be a significant difference but lately I've read that both have their limits and not necessarily able to handle much more than the pmrs, IDK. I'd love to have my truck live tuned but always wanted to have everything else figured out first. don't really want to make the trip and pay for live tuning, and end up going a different route later on. I was planning to run the 366 in my 6spd, so i figured a hour to swap out turbos just to try wouldn't hurt. I have also thought about compounds recently as well but I would have to find someone to make the pipes for me. I have a buddy that can weld, but not sure he has what he needs to weld aluminum or ss. I would then need to find someone with experience to help me choose the turbos. I honestly think a compound setup would fix all my issues(complaints)...or at least most. Or even a setup like yours would probably similar? I was going to bring loss of fuel mileage into the equation, but I just did the math and it's a minor difference IMO. I have lost 1-2mpg going to the bigger injectors and t4 setup, etc. If i drove 12000 miles a yr going off the 2mpg loss @$3/gal; I'd only be spending $369 more per yr. however I might drive 6000 miles a yr; so that is only roughly $180/yr difference. that's nothing to worry about for the extra fun potential, IMO. anyway, I appreciate your advice and will keep in in mind. Do you have an auto or manual tranny? I'm curious what the most power is that people usually go for in a manual since you would be limited by lack of being able to shift fast enough(from what I've been told). Also, have you upgraded your bottom end at all? I imagine you have upgraged your valve springs, push rods, head bolts since you are running 350/200's?....Thanks [/QUOTE]
