So how much power could you make with just 6x16 and an HX35

400 with your pryo at 1700.:shock: If all the rest of your fuel system is stock then less then that. You could do 300 pretty easy.

So 6x16s and enough air I could make 300 to 400 horse with the VE pump and would I need to upgrade the lift pump for the bigger injectors and where is a good place to get some 6x16s

im not very familiar with the original 12v either. how do you do this pump tuning you speak of? obviously you increase your fuel supply because all the black smoke that comes out of your exhaust is just unburned fuel am I correct?

There is a fuel screw on the back of the pump and yes it does cause black smoke but it also gives more boost and power but before doing to much you will want to get some gauges so you dont melt the motor

you dont need 6x16's to make that kind of power. stock non-ic injectors can make that kind of power. you might need head studs though unless you get a really good turbo setup with lots of air moving without much boost. i think you could go with a Low pressure piston pump and that would cost you ~250 bucks?

ya i realize the guage deal haha. interesting because all of my buddies have either common rails or 24v not the 12v and i've always wondered how the 12v made such good power with really no work
