Default advice on Vortech...install...3.12....

I will receive my brand new Vortech kit next week...

as I saw here, the Vortech kit is safe out of the box... but even with my tests pipes and my 3" cat back ? as I saw, it is very rich... but if someone can confirm it is safe out of the box with tests pipes and free flow cat back...

I just bought the 3.12 pulley... but I will install it with the 3.33 first to see... and maybe break it... and few weeks later...I will take a appointement at my dyno shop and go for the 3.12 with the JWT 380cc...is it sound good ?

any one try the 380cc ? need to reflash like the 440cc ???

any opinion...feel free...

any advice concerning the installation ?

thanks to all again !

Get a professional to install and tune it.

Are you French ? You english needs a little work .

Get the kit installed and keep your appointment with the tuner .

If you plan to do the 3.12, then there's no need to put it on with the 3.33. Also, the stock tune is safe, but I would definitely get it tuned. You should definitely flash the injectors if you plan on keeping the FMU and inline Walbro.

Are you installing yourself?

Yes...I will do the install myselft... any advice on the install...

as I saw here, some have the 3.12 with the stock inj with the provided fuel pump in the VORTECH kit... and it is running find with some tuning... I should be more ok with the 380cc...no ?

yes when I will put the 3.12, I will get it tuned... but I will first use the 3.33 to see if everything is ok...still under warranty with th 3.33... and few weeks later... put the 3.12 and get it tune... but still not sure about the 380cc.... don't want to get any trouble... so maybe keep the stock inj with the 3.12 as many here... realy don't know !

thanks you guys ! and sorry for my bad english... it is my third language after french and spanish... I will work it out !

I'm running the 3.12 with stock inj. I got mine used so it was tuned before on another car. I need to find time in my schedule to get it tuned. Car is running hella rich though. I could be putting out more power.
