Default injector questions

Just put in larger injectors the stock ifr table was a constant value across the whole table. This is an 02 gm truck with a vacuume reference on the rails. every calculator I can find uses scaled ifr Im looking for a constant number
for

Injector Rated Fuel Pressure: 43.5
Your Fuel Rail Pressure: 58
Injector Rated Flow Rate 30

what is the formula
thanks

thanks but those are scaled values I need to know injector flow at 58 psi

could it be as simple as (43.5/30)=(58/x)

Yep, that simple. I would also like to know why GM used a fixed value on the trucks and scaled on the cars.

I think its because the have a vacuume reference on the rails, do they do that on the fbodies? Thats a good question I would like to know also I think it has something to do with a difference in the return system

(43.5/30)=(58/x) will work. Just cross multiply and solve for x.

43.5 * x = 30 * 58

43.5 * x = 1740

43.5 * x /43.5 = 1740 / 43.5

x = 40

a static rail pressure has emissions benefits, which is why the cars went to them, but the trucks do not, as they are in a different class for testing. note; not talking about tailpipe emmisions, but the real testing that car companies have to deal with.
