I wish you th best of luck with your setup!

Thanks for that. Yeah, I found STS good to deal with, but built to a price. They are one of the best horsepower per dollar deals around.
While I did get their upgrade to a larger ball bearing turbo we have had to replace or upgrade a lot of stuff they sent, and the injectors are just the latest thing we have to replace. The average person would not bother as if you drove my car you'd think it was very well tuned and runs great as a daily driver... I just know it can be significantly better on fuel.
I am going to suggest to them they offer a platinum package for people like me who are willing to pay for quality - like scavenge pumps rated at 10,000 hours instead of what is cheap; mapable water/meth injection instead of the very expensive but basic kit that is on or off; better quality fittings etc. Quality costs, but cheap is not cheap when it breaks or has to be replaced and there are people out there like me that understand that and will pay for it.
