Yeah I had CSG do my tunes, so pretty sure it's locked. As long as I'm still able to flash the tune files I have, then my car would no longer be paperweight and i'm happy! :thumbup:

I wish there was more to it. The injector rails hasn't been touched since I had the DW 700's installed around 2020. I don't work on my own car at all except super basic maintenance.

Thanks for responses. I've seen the liquid hit the header and it just turns into white vapor. Safe to assume it's not fuel then. But then again, the cabin is flooded with the smell of raw fuel.

Welp, it's not the tune and the gas is definitely ethanol. I'm all out of ideas. It's just problem after problem with this car.

Really hoping it's just a bad flex fuel sensor.

You can get the JDL one or contact SBD for a replacement manifold. It's going to be around $400 I believe, while the JDL will be UEL and cost $1.1k.
