Question Gami Injectors with New Superior Cold Air Sump

I was wanting to install Gami Injectors on my IO-360 FI engine that has the New Superior Cold Air Sump. Has anyone tryed this? The reason I was concerned is because of the Cooler Air might or might not create different balances between the cylinders for getting to LOP. I might be out in left field here, but before spending the bucks I thought I would ask the experts!

Have you run the Gami lean test yet? If not, do that first.

Gami Lean Test

I have the prototype XP-400SRE in my Lancair. Just installed the new sump a few weeks ago. I ran the Gami lean test just the other day and found that all 4 cylinders peaked at less than .1 gph difference in fuel flow. That is WAY better than most of the graphs Gami shows on their site.

Why Gami injectors?

Why not just use the Airflow Performance "Nozzle Tuning Session" at half the price? Airflow Performance is one of the supporters of VAF.

Go with the AFP injectors. I have the AFP system on my 7 and after following their tuning procedure my cylinders peak within .2gph. The AFP is a three piece nozzle and the inserts are only $25. I only needed to change one. Call them up and they will set you up with the right injectors for your system. Don
