What size injectores do I need ? my car is making right at 420 RWHP on motor and I am running a 125 dry shot I was wondering if the 30lb SVO's I have are to small for my set up and I should get some 36lb injectors ?
Re: What size injectores do I need ? 30 lbs should be good for your horsepower level. Because of the higher fuel pressure found on an LS1 your actually running a much higher level thru the 30 pounders...think like 36-38lbs. How is your air/fuel ratio? That is one way to make sure your engine is getting the right amount of fuel.

Re: What size injectores do I need ? I have a setup similar to Street Racer, but I am running stock 98 injectors. These are 28.6 lbs. from what I've read and heard. My o2 numbers at the track have all been acceptable with a 125 hp shot. Does anyone know if I would need to change the programming if I went to 30 lb SVO's. Did you Street Racer? Thanks for any info.

Re: What size injectores do I need ? With 420 on motor and wanting to add some N2O, I'd do 36s w/ custom tuning to be on the safe side. You don't really think 125 is all you'll want do you? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
