    Emmisions vs. non-emmision Heads

    The biggest diffrence is they took the heads installed them on a car and proved that their product has no affect on emissions. Then you get the paper work and sticker that goes along with it. So if you fail emissions you can prove with your paperwork that the heads had nothing to do with it.

    Emissions Test - FAIL!

    Emissions Test - FAIL!

    With a code 31 your almost garunteeing your self a new Egr valve and EVP sensor. I have seen many of these issues and 99% need both valve and sensor. If your sensor was reading biasly low it would give extra egr at cruise and induce a slight miss hence high HC. Also if possible timing should...

    Thoughts on 10:1 plus S trim

    keep the boost no more than 8psi with a good tune and no less than 93 octane and youll be fine. I assume this is also going to be intercooled. If worse comes to worse there is octane boosters, water injection, and intercooler sprayers that help fight detonation. Good fuel and timing curve...

    Question about forced induction

    about the fuel issue get rid of the FMU. I hate fmu's, they work ok with no more than 8-10psi of boost. I would recommend getting a standalone system such as a tweecer. If your fuel pressure gets high enough it will eventually push fuel past the pintle and try to hold the injector open.

    Emissions Test - FAIL!

    this that would cause high HC is a missfire. It could be leaning out and missing, could be a ignition mis. You sure you didnt crack a plug or anything installing them? Can you tell us the rest of the reading co co2 o2 and nox if it has it.

    fuel problems

    even if your pump ran countious KOEO it shouldnt have any affect on idle. Since the pump is always running when the car is on. The pressure regulator does all the work. Looks like you may have 2 seperate issues.
