Yup! I was in the market last year for new injectors, figured why not overshoot the size a little and start playing with this stuff!

I guess I’ve become used to my ‘extreme’ application (7hp/ci), and accounting for all variables at all times. I agree that in an application that is making less hp/ci, that it’s VERY forgiving. People do get a bad batch from time to time though, and monitering would catch that before you put it in your tank.

I just personally look for E80-83 on my in car monitor.

Making about a quarter of your power, I still check…a little OCD maybe but like my childhood idol said, knowing is half the battle!

The vast majority of the fun for me is testing/building/tinkering, so I’d be checking it all the time even if it was for my mower, lol!

I’m going to measure exit 23 Saturday, but I’m sure it’ll be E83. I think you’ll see the ‘local’ stations remain at the summer content until mid-October.
