Josh Able: puny fuel injectors

[mkii@nycap.rr.com (Josh Able)]

Ok, the set up Im running is fine.

That is what several 1.8t tuners and ATP have told me.

They also say I shouldn't use more than 20 pounds boost for that set up,
since 20 pounds is max.

The numbers it puts down are what I should be getting.


Im changing it though to 435cc injectors and am getting the chip remapped so
that I can use more than 20 pounds when I wish, and so I don't run as rich,
but that's just because I want MORE POWER!!!!!!!!!!!

There is absolutely no way your running 310cc injectors with 3.5-4bar fuel
pressure at only 75% duty cycle and seeing anything close to 300 crank HP.

Every chart our there shows bosch 300cc injectors running at a recommeded
80% duty cycle and 300Kpa (43psi/3bar) making approx 60HP per injector.  If
your running a 4bar FPR and those injectors, you Might see the HP you claim
but your injectors will be 100% duty cycle be terribly overworked.

I hope your tuner is giving away reach arounds as he cornholes you with
these claims of "corrected" HP and injector sizes.

its about 75% which is ok.

Anyways, if I went with bigger injectors the car would run even richer, and
I would have to get my chip redone.
