All you need to do is get the plugs for them as well. If you have the stock ECU etc I think these injectors are too big for the system, I've had 440cc injectors tuned fairly well with the stock system. Ideally you need an aftermarket fuel/ignition system to get good results. Don't underestimate the strength of a stock 3T GTE. As long as the tuning is right, they can take a real hammering. I'm running a GT25 (320hp) BB turbo with custom ceramic coating manifold, full 3 inch system including dump pipe at 14psi. Still on stock pistons etc and no problems at all. Power is now at 145kw at the wheels. I believe that the 3T GTE stock pistons will hold at least 170kw as long as its tuned right. I agree that the landing rings on a 3T GTE are a weak spot, BUT if done right you will be surprised what they can take. Everyone told me there was no way I should go over 10psi with stock pistons, like I say its now at 14psi with no issues. I spent alot of time and effort getting under bonnet temps down. First I got the custom manifold, turbo snail and dump all coated by HPC. The results were good, BUT is was still too hot under the bonnet. In addition ot this I used a ceramic based heat shield and these two together worked really well. Saved my paint thats for sure. Like the other guys siad, a CT26 is a good cheap option for a 3T GTE, just not a good as the Garrett BB turbos. But hey, you only get what you pay for....
