Question #1: Ok, so I have used search before this, but would just like the question to be answered drectly to me lol. I have siemens #55 injectors that I ordered from lindsey racing, do i need the inline resistors? The car has the following list of mods....

1. LR 4" exhaust
2. LR Super 53 turbo
3. LR/951MAX chips (KLR/DME)
4. Power Perfect
5. And plenty of other things that have nothing to do with my problem.


Question #2: I must be technically inclined. My car will start with the power perfect disconnected, but not with it. I realize that the pots could be set wrong, but I have no idea what they should be set at. The whole write up on LR's website just doesn't click with me I guess. Could anyone with experience with the power pefect help? Or even better, could someone with a similar setup give me their pot numbers on the power perfect lol?

Being a do-it-your-selfer, I dislike asking people little questions like these, but have gone without driving my car for too long now, and must get it fixed by this week. Any advice will be great.

Happy Motoring

Adam, is this the expensive 3L motor you've had built by LR for some time and had problems with going back months and months? I've seen your posts on their website and it would seem to me that you should be asking them shouldn't you? Not that someone with experience on here shouldn't answer, just seems like a long time that you've had this motor with problems.

And to answer your questions:

#1 - Yes you should use resistors.

#2 - You need to have a WBO2 to properly adjust your AFR. Without knowing where your AFRs are currently at, it will be impossible to make any educated adjustments on the piggyback. Furthermore, any suggestions on what to set the pots to, without knowing AFRs, could have disastrous results.

Yay another resistor/injector debate haha!! I am just silly with excitement and uhhh lack of sleep.

No, you don't NEED resistors however if you are using the LR chips then you should use them.

As for the power perfect, like stated above, get a WBO2 before anything and ask LR to clarify the tuning adjustments.

Adam Poland

Ok thank you. I mainly needed the injector question answered. I have a WBO2 already. I'll have to give Dave a call today I guess. I'll have to order some resistors now. Any links please?

I think you have the wrong Adam lol. My car is a 2.5L that we built using lindsey products. I was going to get the old motor bored out to a 3.0, but thats because it had scored cylinder walls, then I found out I needed a new crank for that so didnt follow through. lol

No, this is a different Adam. And you don't know what your talking about.

Sorry for the mistake. My apologies. I was just concerned for that Adam. No harm, no foul.
As for not knowing what I'm talking about, well that's all relative Mike...but now that you're here perhaps you can shed some light on the issue brought up by 'this' Adam.

Mike Lindsey

We did. On the telephone.

Adam Poland

Yes. And i must say, thank you for ALL of the help youve given us at LR.

Nice to see a happy ending.

AND FWIW, I have been running my car for a year or so with the same 55lb injectors (from LR), no resistors, and my DME has yet to burst into flames, or even have a hickup on the injector drivers...

Happy endings are my favorite way to bring something to closure!

Patrick, it is beter to have a happy ending, than to see one!

Party On!

Yeah that what the guys at Lindsey said we should be able to do. I'm thinking my dad just fried our power perfects. They're tapped into the right pins, but not communicating with the air vane meter. We plan on checking the voltage levels today.
