Man , how do they plan on overcoming the same lean condition that you guys
are encountering with just an enlarged two-barrel TB ? Surely they wouldn't
design the four-barrel without being able to cure that problem . Maybe it
will be available in some sort of package similar to the Super 60 turbo
packages ? Something like Manifold , TB , bigger injectors , and SBEC ?
Just a thought .
I guess we'll see in about 3 years when they actually release it .
