steviewevie Which GT30 is it exactly ?

Why the pressure regulator for the injectors ? So will you make sure you change the injectors before they max out ?

Sorry for all the questions, but please take it as a compliment that I'm very interested to hear how you get on, as I'm sure are lots of other folks here ! :biggrin:

The fuel pressure reg gives us a bit more of a margin with the std injectors

We're very pleased to be able to now welcome on board SPC Horsham as an authorised trader (their forum etc will be coming very soon). So now they're free to talk to you about prices etc, although bear in mind this is their test car, so rolling this out for members might be a different thing and they may or may not be ready to talk about pricing at this stage.
