The advice I can give you is talk to Karl first about closed loop, and siemens, I think you may be VERY surprised.

Lee just phone karl and explain you want it to be a bit safer at the top and would also like a bit more power. Also explain you would like bigger than greens incase you want to go more power in the future.

What about Greens ? should be able to get a good setup that is usable and still friendly. Since your currently on Yellows wouldn't they be enough of an increase ??

Mini hyjack, sorry.
Anyone used Delphi (Lucas?) 75lb injectors before? Part No. 17104988

Reason I ask is because ive got a set here for the 3dr for when its finaly ready for its mapping, but ive never seen anyone else speak of them being used on a YB?

Get it on greys I would, NMS is very good, you can have nice low emissions and driveability when correctly mapped as Karl can do, so plenty in reserve as well.
