Well guys, the car is fixed. On the pic above, the left injector was the corrected way.

It turns out the problem I was having was my fuel rails (Thank you JDM & Conway for the info to check that). The passenger side fuel rail wasnt sitting flush like it should. For some reason cylinder 1 injector would not completely sit flush in the block but all the remaining injectors did. Causing the huge leak I was having (Bogging out the car on acceralation and rough idle).

The fuel rails sit on 4 plastic washers (bolts go thru them and hold the whole rail and injectors down). So I took out the plastic washer by cylinder 1 and bolted down the fuel rail. All the injectors sat flush after that and the car runs great!

Im taking the Z to the dyno tommorrow for my tune with Church. Ill let u guys know my HP gains. Thank you again everybody for all your info!!! I apprecaite it

glad you got it running. I figured it must be a simple problem or tune. installing the procharger wouldn't instantly make the car run like crap unless something was missed.

not a blowoff. superchargers need a bypass valve which will open at idle and open under less vaccum or you may damage the supercharger.

You can use a bov it just has to have a 1psi spring or something that keeps it open at idle. I know the bov I have from procharger leaks when it closes.

She's aggressive, you can easily spin the tires thru 1st and 2nd gears. Which I should stop doing cause the tires are brand new 😁

you must have a valve on your setup now? You just want a different noise?

I do, its a Apex something. I'm not to happy with it. I checked out the Tial q 50mm. A lot of people mentioned that it was extremely loud even while cruising.

I'm looking for something mellow while cruising but loud when I'm on the gas

When your on the gas, wot, the blow off valve is closed and not making any sound. I really don't mind it at all. I like it.

nothing will be mellow unless you recirculate. you are dumping all the air from the supercharger out the valve.

The only BOV's that are not as annoying are the ones that don't have the stupid edges and crap.

As str8 said, as long as your atmospherically dumping it will make noise. So the more rpm you put in, the more air you will dump, and the louder it will be.

But you could always try a synapse bov or a tial knock off. I have a 50mm tial knock off made by RPS. Works pretty well, esp for the price. They stand behind that BOV as well. Like the way it sounds on the cars I've seen withit.
