so you got a bigger turbo and not bigger injectors?
you should get a wideband then decide what the limit of your stock injectors are. you can raise the fuel cut abit by upping fuel pressure but you might as well just get the bigger injectors

lexus AFM + stock injectors = recipe for disaster

Wise words right here. ^

You should use one of the online duty cycle calculators to give you an idea of where you should be with your 440's. You'll be surprised as to where the safety zone is as opposed to where others will randomly throw out numbers...

Also, remember that your injectors are how old...? ;)

You would be safer running the stock AFM than the lexus AFM until you get 550cc injectors.

Don't mess with your fuel pressure. Leave it set to the TSRM spec and let your regulator do it's job.

If you bump the base pressure keep in mind it's global so will be xx% richer EVERYWHERE not just on the top end....

get the 550's.

yea thanks for the advise im goin to keep it at base spec as per tsrm 41 or so for now till the 550s come in to the picture
