I was going to do a 4x4 s-10 build like this. I wandered how much that stock injection would handle. And if you do swap intakes to the mercruiser style, where do the injectors wire into?? Just curios, not sure how the stock spider injector are wired either.

You would cut off the HUGE CPI connector and wire up the 6 (or 8---depending) injectors to the cut ends of the truck harness.

well.... there is a story behind that name. when i first got on the internet something like 15 years ago i was seeing a woman and her name was parish. i was at her house when i first signed on and had to pick a name. ended up using her last name since we were going to share the account.

that deal ended after about a year but i had been using the name in lots of places so i just kept using it. now 15 years later i am still using the name online. i am not so sure i want to use that name for a business and my wife probably wouldn't like it either.

or i could just say **** it and use it anyways

yep, pretty much...besides the reputation you gave the name is a little better to everyone that might be interested in performance work on those sites than someone that only you know gave it I believe. Just throwing that out there. Also the reputation is what will bring you business in said shop at first IMO.

some of you guys have me a little worried about those poppit injectors. people keep asking "are you keeping those injectors". makes me think i need to look into this more.

i am probably not on a set budget so if it is something that i really should upgrade i think i can get it done. better to know now rather then later.

soo. first question is do i NEED to upgrade the intake/injectors. will they most likely fail if i dont? what are the issues with them? the fuel system is a return style and i am pretty sure it is manifold pressure referenced so as the boost goes up so should the fuel pressure wich will keep the pressure across the injectors the same as stock. the boost it self shouldn't cause those injectors to fail.

if i did upgrade to the marine intake what parts can you swap over from the truck intake? besides the $200 or so for the intake/rails/injectors what other expenses are there?

With age they seem to stick or leak. Not upgradable, only flow what they flow haha. I think the marine upgrade is just a better choice.

Also as far as need. Im sure you can make it work...im no turbo, or tuning guru, im just telling you want i have found in the mechanics field.
