Default what size injector for my set up?

ok im shopping around for injectors and not really sure what i would need ..
engine

347 froged bottom end built for nitrous
prc 2.5 heads milled
ms4
fast 90 90
EWP
Long tubes
and and additional 300 shot when on the bottle .

whats a good injector for my set up ?? looking for about 750+ rwhp and spining it around 7k rpm ..

i might go with astand alone fuel system while on the spary but a lil unsure yet .

motor hasent been turned over yet and would like to have the fuel right away.. i only have a walbro 255lph and corvette FPR but will most likely go with the standalone fuel system for the nitrous ..


what size injectors if i run the standalone
whats size injector if i run the nitrous off the stock fuel rails .
or would it be the same injector for my hp goals ?

thanks again.

So with nitrous you are talking about a wet kit? or dry?

so you are expecting right at 9xxHP or 1kHP.

For YOUR FUEL SYSTEM, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TALKING TO NATE up here, he can get all your fuel needs handled. You will def. need more than 1 fuel pump for this

60lb mototron or maybe even the 79lb racetronix .

the 60lb (actually 69lb at our fuel pressure) will support: 1050BHP (BHP is rated at flywheel)

the 79lb (atcually 91lb at our fuel pressure) will support: 1100+ to 1350BHP (BHP is rated at flywheel)

being that you are going with a lot of nitrous and going crazy, I would get the racetronix 79lb injectors IF you think you would be making 1k to the wheels


you won't need a standalone fueling system... the stock pcm can handle it

Good advice up there. If a wet kit you will not need that big of injectors but a good fuel system behind it makes all the difference.

well the main reason for the stand alone kit is to not have to fill up w 116 whenever i wanna run nitrous .. and i was looking for about 750+ with the juice ..

so what juel injector for the set up ?

either grab you a 48# ... which I don't know if BHP is LESS or MORE than RWHP

I went to http://www.rceng.com/technical.aspx GO to the very bottom and put in 850BHP and 8 injectors, then I put in .53 ..idk how much to add for nitrous (clueless on that), .85 percent duty cycle, then 58psi.

and it came up with 57# , BUT Idk if I did it correct for nitrous. so there may be some other feedback on here.

I would say grab a 60#er as you are making a lot of power

IF IT IS A WET KIT, that 48# injectors SHOULD do you fine
