Yip Mine wouldn't run properly on 315 injectors so I had my standard ones Serviced & they worked a treat I have a hunch my fuel was very Stale & maybe one got some crap in one of them during the install

I'll give my two bob's worth, but please bear in mind that I'm not technically competent. I merely get into my Soarer and aim it.
I put a Bullet blower on mine and wasted a lot of time and money subsequently; so the purpose of this message is to give you my experience, though it may not be relevant for you.
I think the biggest mistake I made was relying entirely on Bullet, who sold me a piggy back. I'm not necessarily blaming them, and it may well be that my car was a bit fussy, but the bottom line for me was the need to buy a completely separate ECU or engine manager, as the factory ECU could not step up to the demand. This cost me about $5k, but had I done it in the first place, I would have saved another $3k and a lot of disappointment and misery. Trying to boost on the cheap or compromise doesn't work, but maybe designs have improved and yours will work fine. Let's hope so.

Thanks for the input, Paul. For the record, mine ran OK at 6 psi - just needed a bit more fuel, as you say. My problems started when we went to 10psi, and by then there was no turning back (of course). Bullet have tried hard, spending some time on the phone and running programs, but the glitches just couldn't be ironed out because of the limitations of the piggy back.

How much does a W2A setup run? How much height does it add? I'm considering lobbing a small Weiand on the '55 and am wondering if W2A or Meth injection is the go.

Yeah plus ya get to plumb in the fogger and lines. Looks sweet. Just gotta find one of the mini Weiands that uses a gilmer belt. Gotta have the tooth belt whine too
Well I guess first I need to find a new rear axle to handle that kind of power. And then someone to shorten it so I can put in mini tubs.
