Default to be high or not to be high

hey all i was going to go with the motrons 60lb's but do i need high impedence or low also should i buy the flow matched? i have a ls1 and about to install a sts kit. so i think i should go with 60lb's or how much boost could 48lb's handle? thanks

You should contact a sponsor like nate: http://www.nastyperformance.com/default.html

Or do a lot more reading on this site.

To answer some of your questions the factory computer will run high impedence injectors which are what the mototron 60#'s are.

Horsepower rating depends on pumps, lines, boost ref, base fuel pressure etc.

If you are not using an aftermarket ECM then you want high impedance injectors.

As far as boost. Injector sizing is all about calculating crank horsepower and base specific fuel consumption divided by the number of injectors.

On a turbo car the 48's will handle about 475 CRANK HP.

The 60's will do about 600 CRANK HP.

To convert to wheel HP, subtract 15% for a manual, 20% for an automatic.

We have the brand new Siemens 60's for $55 each, flow matched, viton o-rings installed, and shipping is from the US, and a flat $11.60
