Mr. D. or other Ram-air P&P people....(injectors)....
I recall Mance saying that "you could count on it" in regards to needing bigger injectors if you do the P&P IM and have a RAM. Trying to get an idea if his speculation was correct. Also do you have a FPR that has higher bar fuel delivery?
Trying to figure out if I get the RS4 bumper and larger RAM duct if I will increase my chances of not enough fuel.

Start with an adjustable fuel pressure regulator; stock injectors can get you to at least 220 hp
You do not need injectors until you get way into modding this engine. The OEM Lucas injectors will actually work to 100% of their rated capacity at damn near all fuel pressures. Most other injectors will usually choke at 90% of rated capacity/pressure to begin with and will similarly choke at higher fuel pressures. Thank Audi for using top-of-the-line fuel injectors on our engines.

My list of mods....I may be wishing I'm over 220hp..
Ram into K&N + Velocity Stack
Stage 3 MAF
Stage 3 Hose
RSXTB
Iridium Plugs
Mcgregor (?) Wires
Remus Exhaust
Sorry I haven't updated my Mods...don't remember how. I just figured with the IM inplace and the larger RAM duct I would Deffinately be over 220hp. Maybe I'm being Neive but oh well.

Have to admit I feel rather dejected!! :( ......
I guess my mom takes crap care of her 3 series. I pull fairly even with her car and I thought they were stock 217hp. Oh well. Did Mance not say that the P&P intake manifold and header gasket matching would see 25-30hp gains plus another 10+ with RAM? Obvioulsy they were just projections and none of us really care about "HorsePower" perse but I figured 173+ P&P as well as the other upgrades would at least get me in the ball park?
