Default how much rwhp....

How much do you guys think I can get out of 50lb injectors? I realy don't want to buy a converter box and go to bigger injectors. And as the maf will stop me too then I want to know what will run out first? So 50lb=600rwhp?

And I have aluminam tank,weldon pump,Aeromotive pro-series regulator, Aeromotive fuel pump speed controller, Speed inc. rails! And the 2 stage NOS is a wet system after the maf is maxed only so it doesn't matter!

I would be very happy at 600rwhp w/o NOS. But maf or injector will give out?

I'm running 602 RWHP with a Twin Walbro Pump and 50 lb injectors. You'll be just fine!! I have plenty more fuel left.. I believe the 50lb are good up to about 730 or so RWHP at 58psi of pressure. If you put dry shot of Nos on top of your 600 RWHP Bolwn, you might run out of injector. I would then go with the 60lb High Impeadence injectors that mightymouse is running.

well the idea of the wet is that it adds nos and fuel so the injector doesn't matter but the regulator might need to be upped for the fuel line for the NOS.
All I need is the injector to work witht the motor and turbos.

The biggest problem I have is the maf vs injector vs timing!!

Oh sorry I thought you were going to run a dry shot. Wet is fine.

You will run out of Maf long before the 50lb injectors will.
I run 50lbers. After it was tunned by some body else, I was running very rich(9.0:1). I tuned it myself with LS1 edit. I had to pull out 40% fuel in PE table to reach just under 12:1. Which netted me 629RWHP. So the injectors have plenty left in them.

Well that is good for now 600rwhp and 100hp spray should be mid 700rwhp! Way more power than I can use on the street so I am happy!

I would be nervous to run a Dry shot depending on the MAF only to read the new richer air that coming in on top of the 600 RWHP from the blower. At that level I would look at a wet shot only, at least you won't worry about not having the fuel there when you hit the Go Juice..

It would be easier to assess if folks posted the duty cycle of their injectors.
