What Fuel Injectors Are You Running?

Screw it, I'm gonna start playing too. Tim, I'm officially calling you out at the convention :angelnot:

 

[Toolman]

Well, I don't have a reason to go a different route

Actually, you have about 750 reasons.

WHoops, I read that wrong, I thought you said you were officially 'coming out'. Hehe, no forged engine for you!!

25PSI of boost? Holy shit.

Not to sound dumb (un-informed), but who is Josh, does he still sell drop in enjectors in, say, the 42# range, and how do I get in touch with him. I plan to have a remote turbo setup up and running by May 31...and, parts wise, am only lacking injectors and my stainless tubing for oil feed and return.

www.shonutperformance.com <-- Josh owns this website. As far as I know, he still sells them.

Has anyone ever considered the Seimeins Dakka 55's(3172)?

12-13 Ohms
Body Design: Metal and composite plastic
Length: 3 inches, 74 mm
Diameter: 24 mm
O-rings: Top and bottom, 14.5 mm

Way too small! (that's what she said, yeah, I beat you all to it)

Accel makes a high impedance 160lb I think...

Accel makes a high impedance 160lb I think...

Too Big and I really do think those are low impedance ... I do know they make a 79 or 80 lber now.

The problem is, you will run out of fuel line way before using the potential of even a 55 lber. A lot of the blower/turbo guys here are running on the "razor's edge" and tuning around the anemic sized fuel lines. From my calculations, you can run 600 cHP with the 63 lbers safely (without pushing the base fuel pressure), but you can't with the OEM fuel lines. You really need 1/2" supply and at least a 3/8” return fuel line for that power level. If you get above 700 cHP, your fuel lines need to be even bigger. You can bolt on a 1/2" supply fuel line, but that don't get you around the restriction inside the fuel tank. And then there is the fuel pump ....

This is why when I started running 20 psi of boost, I ditched the OEM fuel system and went completely with aftermarket parts that could support 700 cHP.

You are 100% correct. Not many people understand that... Which is why I'm doing the same thing on my nitrous car

I personally would not ever have a need for anything over 55lbs. My trans modification is in the works and if it does actually work, I may take things to the next level with an inline pump in conjunction with my 255. I would probably not exceed a power level that could be achieved with 55lb injectors and my shonut supply/regulator... It's still FWD

Your dead on the money with that comment...

i have Josh's accels 48lbs for modified rails. they worked good for me

 

[1995SHO9]

Oh, just to give you guys a followup, I did order Josh's Accels for modified fuel rails and they work really well. I am happy with how they are doing.

Oh and jeanrw2000, that is a really nice looking setup you've got there.
