    Slight update:

    I haven't driven the car lately because of a "miss"/"backfire" I was having while cruising at highway speeds, and could really find a solution. I checked the plugs, and they appear normal and consistent. So I decided to start throwing money at a wall LOL.

    I installed a JDM 4-1 header (with the 2.5in collector), but it hung lower than my hytech replica (plus I dented after total of 30 miles ). So that got removed and the tri-y got installed again. I installed a new fuel pressure gauge in placed of the crappy b&m one. I upgraded to DSM 440 injectors, and I also got one of the local tuners to burn me a new basemap. Last, but not least I installed a Walbro 255lph hp fuel pump. The car ran great for a total of 60 secs before it popped a #14 fuel (alternator solenoid fuse I believe), and it would continue to pop that fuse each time we replaced it. The problem is the ecu and fuel pump is on that circuit, so every time it pops the car dies. The sad thing about it is, my friend I were very careful with when installed the pump so I don't really know where the problem lies. This weekend we are going to drop the tank and check out the wiring again and hopefully we fine something that can be fixed.

    The only bright side is the "miss" seems like it may have went away. *crosses fingers*

    This is funny

    I removed the pump and the whole harness and there was not a shorted wire anywhere. We installed the OEM pump and problem stopped. *shakes head*

    How long do you think the oem pump will last with 440cc injectors?!? I kinda don't want to drop the tank again LOL.
