Default HPTuner Scale for Red Top Ford Injector

I have researched the repository and cannot find a file with these injectors. The stock tunes indicate a difference of 2.55 from 0 to 80 kPa. I understand that these injectors are rated at 36# @ 58 psi. So, would my scale be 36 to 38.55? I thought i had a previous tuner take care of this, but my current scale is from 37.33 to 40.92. Thanks for any help here.

I pm'd you and asked for your email, but I guess you don't want it.

My PM has never worked and has been very frustrating to say the least. Can you email me at randyhughes@reeceandnichols.com. Sorry for the hassle.

This information does not line up with 3 repository files that have the same scaling. Why is there a difference? Did notice the information you sent is for 3 Bar.

Every injector is different, every regulator is different, every fuel pump is different, etc,...

You could have the exact perfect data for an injector tested on a bench some where but yours are gonna be different. Haggling over less than a 1lbs/hr is a waste of time. However having a pretty close estimate on all the injector data (not just IFR) will go a long way in making your tune that much better.

That's pretty close to my original scale done about 4 years ago. Did you mess with the other scales and values....offset, minimum, default values?

No clue, this is what my tuner did, I trust him 100% and have no need to question him. I have the software to tune the nitrous side of things and make small changes when needed.

I still have a lot of learning to do.

There are a lot of opinions about how the SVO 30 lb are rated, 3 bar (43.5) or at 40 psi.
My numbers are 36-39. You have to decide what numbers you want to go with, stick with them. and start tuning your VE.
