If mapped properly it will be cool.

I run injectors twice the size of greys and have had no issues.

If its mapped correctly, will you get bore wash??

WTF?

Of course not! Although it depends on your definition of 'correctly', as where Cosworths are concerned, I have seen all sorts of shit that people seem to be willing to accept.

You can have greys and a better idle than std, especially with a better ecu than std!!
