You may need 440s with the addition of the head to your existing mods, with a tune. Best thing to do is to call Jan and talk with him about it before you spend any $$$ on injectors. While the standard ECU flash will do a fair job of trimming back the 380s (but not great), it can NOT trim back the 440s... so you MUST have a tune for the 440s to work properly. Many people install them immediately before the tune... again, talk with Jan about this!

 

When Jan tuned my car last year, I had a 15% pulley, Alta Intake and Milltek cat-back exhaust, and the stock injectors. Jan explained that I would have had more power at the top end of the rev range if I had the JCW 380 injectors (or even bigger ones). You could tell my car quite literally "runs out of gas" at 6500 RPMs, but in all honesty, for my daily-driven street car, I was really happy to break the 200HP barrier! I don't track the car, so I'm very rarely revving the engine that high anyway...

My car dyno'd at 201.5 HP/187.7 ft. lbs. with Jan's tuning magic, which I am very happy with, given my basic performance mods...

 

I wonder if this becomes an issue with older injectors or early injectors... because I've heard a couple other cases like this of OEM injectors running out at high RPMs with similar mods... but in other cases folks seem to have done just fine with the OEMs....

 

Depends on the car and how it is used. Some cars with just a pulley and cam will make more power with 380's and 440's. Each car if so very different how it reacts to each mod and tune.

 

Any schedule stop in south florida?

 

I'll be in Miami next month
Pm for details

 

Rumor has it Jan will be in Miami the weekend of 3/15 @ Homestead. Maybe someone could get a day setup when he's there. Never hurts to ask him.

Good Luck

 

You damn beat me to it.

 

I am 100% in for this, contacted Jan and he mentioned the Grand Am weekend at Watkins Glen would be when he is in the area!

 

Your correct. He may still be here in late April or early May before the GVC-BMWCCA event to do cars at Eksten's. He's working on some BMW stuff also.
If things workout we may have him also in June before or after Grand-Am June 6th at the Glen. His time is limited this year more than ever.

 

Helix has begun their move. Maybe Jan could be here for a tune in the same time period as the race @ NJMP or a little before the dragon. I'll chat with Eric and see what he thinks.

 

i wish i shared your optimism. it is a good sign that the move has begun though

that thunderbolt date is during the dragon....which i believe the helix boys will be attending.

and so we must wait.............................................. ..............

 

Jan will be in Rochester April 10-11 @ Eksten Autoworks for a dyno tune session.

Whoo hoo!

Thanks your in the schedule.

 

I'm in for a tune at Helix, whenever Jam schedules that

 

I'm in for a tune at Helix, whenever Jan schedules that

 

His schedule is very tight this year. Hope Helix gets their Dyno setup soon.

 

all the more reason to work on getting the remote tuning setup and perfected....woo hoo can't wait for that!
