i'm very happy with this kit. i purchased this kit before the new v2.0 throttle body but didn't get to ride it with the old throttle body before the new one came out about 2 weeks later, so matt sent me the new version. i DID go through one MAP sensor from fuel contamination with the injectors on the bottom. the new design of the v2.0 throttle body is a great improvement. i was able to reach my throttle cable to left side and no problem at all with MAP contamination since the injectors are mounted on top this time. aside from getting some bungs welded to your exhaust for the O2 sensors and any little minor improvements you may want to do, this kit really is plug and play and not hard to install at all. i think the only trouble i had during the install was finding room for everything like routing fuel lines since there isn't a whole lot of room to work with (08+ anyway), but it can be done. i mounted my fuel pump below the new petcock to avoid fuel starvation and the smaller fuel filter saved room as well. for reassurance, get yourself some fuel injection hose clamps and high pressure fuel line and you're good to go, and don't forget to get either on/off valves or quick disconnects (quick disconnects recommended so it seals on both sides) for your tank fuel lines for easy tank removal. very inexpensive upgrades.
matt was also extremely helpful with anything i needed. i'm also the first female to do this install.  |
CONGRATULATIONS! @iNinja
The first female that's done the conversion. A college girl !
Now you guys start to make me proud!
Thanks for the suggestions on hose clamps and quick disconnects.
