As the title suggests. Suspect my injectors may be humped, and have the chance of turbo 550- injectors, despite my car being a non turbo. Can this work, will i see a performance change, or will it just spaz out and bugger up. Again. :rant:

It'll just over fuel I'm afraid.

I have several sets of good 440s available for a moderate fee. :D

stick to 440's.. the N/A overfuels with those anyway :banghead: later ones are a bit better, but still run rich as hell :no: SAFC II is the way to go, but you need a AFM meter / wideband o2 sensor setup to sort the mix out, otherwise you'll be guessing!

Alternatively, you could wait a couple o' weeks and buy my Turbo'ed 7M-GE - just a thought!!!

Meant to ask you about that one lol... any clues as to what exactly was done for the conversion?

Just by looking in the engine bay, complete manifold and CT26 installed.
AFM running into CT26 and lots of other required pipework leading to/from IC (located where it should be actually!!) and manifold/s.
The installation looks like a long-way for a shortcut, hoses routed under and over and through and back-through, but it works well (surprisingly) and kicks you into the back of the seat when it spools up - granted it's only running 0.7bar - but it still kicks!!
Other than that, I'd hope/expect that the HG has been replaced with a metal jobbie (cos it runs as cool as it should) but there is one slight water leak on a pipe running under the dizzy - which I'll get to soon.
Apart from that, it has only shred one set of rear discs/pads (just replaced today) - but I think that's more to do with one of the previous owners disasterous installation technique of setting the pads at a wonderful angle!!
