I have a 90 GT with BBK cold air . Pro M 75mm MAF , 70 mm BBK TB and spacer , Trick FLow Intake , E 303 cam , 19 # injectors , 1.7 rockers. i use mac long tubes with an offroad H pipe and dynomax mufflers. with the exception of my 2.5" cowled hood the car is pretty much a sleeper. now for my questions . i wanna cut my H pipe after the "H" and upsize to  3" and run 2chamber flomasters. Would i lose too much backpressure or do I have the mods to support the bigger exhaust. now for question #2 i was considering upping my fuel injectors to 24# can i have my mass air recalibrated or do i need to buy another one?Will the 24# injectors add any more hores or just burn more fuel i do pplan on adding a supercharger in the future.


         any input is greatly appreciated and thanks,

3" exhaust with stock heads will lose a share of low-end torque (little backpressure) and little/no improvement in top-end power based on the flow limitations of stock heads.


The 24lb injectors will burn a little more fuel and are pony pointless unless you increase the airflow at the same time.  They are just capable of flowing more fuel.  The computer controls the duration (length of time) with which the injectors are "pulsed" based on input received from various sensors.


You have/bought a 75MAF calibrated for 19's?
