58928, drilling the sfmu restrictor - quick - at the dyno

what size drill bit did you people use to drill out the restrictor? i put it in place but now im running a tad lean on top end at around 5000 rpm according to the datalogger.

thanx

The ones that have posted just said that they doubled the size of the hole. I would just eyeball it. IMO

thats too large. we drilled it with .0400 and the fuel curve ended up being perfect

the restrictor has a tendancy to help with lag of fuel however makes you run slightly rich under boost. drill it out to give a little more fuel under heavy boost.
