Default DIC calibration??

Got my kb turbo kit on and my 60lb injectors, got a basic safe tune on it right now from Charlie wheatley. Anyways she suppose to go in tomorrow to get my dyno tune done, my only question right now is after a full complete tune will my fuel usage guage, mpg guage be correct? After the injector install these were all thrown a bit out of wack. If not I guess its no big deal

The inject change may change the values, I don't know for sure
You could ask Charlie.


Who is doing the dyno tune, is there a shop in Moncton?

fuel used will still be accurate. the mpg will not. it's based on stock injector usec times.

I think you may have that backwards, could be wrong

Thats what mine was doing, had to fill up and the guage showed I used 77 litres out of my 97 liter tank, and she took 91 liters

That's what I thought, if one is wrong the other will be as well.
