Default I have GTD --170

I have to say, I can feel a huge difference now. A few months on the gtd nozzles.

I had (probably worn out) stock injectors and the car ran fine with close to zero smoke except some greys at acceleration.
Now I have a set of new injectors....set with the gtd nozzles and it is set to 170. What a difference!!
And the smoke is gone. I removed and cleaned then painted all manifolds too and fitted new& proper fuel hoses/ injector return lines and replaced the transparent fuel hose that connects the ip and the filter.
The car idles so much smoother and sounds better too. Even cold. Oh and coldstarts are not only 100% perfect but 101%.
Smoke disappears within 20seconds.

Idk if stock nozzles would have done the same results or not...but i'm very satisfied. The only bad thing was that i had to jbweld the injector nipples bc my deepsocket bent and loosened most of them at installation. And they leaked....
Lesson: Get the proper tool. )

I have the 12mm ip setup too but i havent got it put together yet.

I actually like this car as is. Maybe the next one can benefit from it. My brother's LT35 should truly have it. It is so slow....
