That results with poor atomization and more heat with the unburnt fuel.

in theory this would be incorrect, unless you are saying the 18k mod will weaken the pump. the pump will still think the pressures are low at high end and will try to keep them as high as it can....so at top end theoretically everything would be the same with or without the 18k mod if what you guys have said about the pumps is correct. the pump MAY not be able to keep up, but it would still put out the max pressure it was capable of...therefore the 18k mod should not take anything away from top end that already was not available before the mod......also....the mod affects the ICP signal...but it is the tricking the PCM and IDM into controlling the IPR that you actually get the performance benifit from...you are not tricking the ICP...you are just changing the signal it puts out to trick the PCM and IDM..........Marc
