may avc-r is showin that my injectors are maxin out at 12psi but i see alot of carz running like 17psi on the standard injectors. any one know why that is. im running a rb25det turbo on a rb20det

As SK says... But you could replace your fuel filter and feed your fuel pump with better current capacity (larger) wiring and fit a rising rate FPR -Fuel press reg. and adj with some tuning on a dyno would be a good idea.

Are you still using the stock ECU? (well with a safc ofc you are :laugh:)

My injector duty cycle dropped almost 10% when I got a remap.

SK, 270bhp doesn't seem like alot... people get 150rwkw off the stock turbo and injectors, a few have even got close to 190rwkw off standard items.

I even got 150rwkw st 87% duty cycle. Raising the boost will increase fuel pressure and increase the max power you can obtain, correct?

if you dont have the cash for bigger injectors and your after some decent power using ur standard injectors all you have to get urself is a rising rate fuel reg there are different ratio rates available, so say u have std rb25 injectors (think they are around 380cc) and you plan on keeping them u use a rising rate 1:1.7 fuel reg so for every 1 psi boost you get 1.7 psi of fuel pressure,

so if you run 17psi of boost thats 28.9 psi of fuel pressure on top of your base fuel pressure which is probably around 30 psi which gives you a total of 58.9 fuel pressure which is quite high but this will make your injectors flow a fair bit more, since your pressure is now higher make sure all your fuel lines are in good condition or upgrade to higher quality hose

also make sure ur car is retuned after this,

hope this answers ur question cuong nguyen

Happy dynos, or non standard fuel pressure.

270 bhp = 202 kw - 50 kw losses = 152 rwkw

The 270 cc's = 270 bhp rule assume 85% duty cycle

So 152 + 15% = 175 rwkw at 100% duty cycle

:woot: cheers :)

ya most people would have upgraded their fuel pump.

Raising the boost will increase the fuel pressure, but it will also increase the manifold pressure on the open side of the injector by the same amount, therefore the pressure difference is constant over the injector. This is the whole reason for the fuel pressure regulator. It maintains an equal pressure across the injector so no matter what the manifold pressure, the same duty cycle of the injector will always give the same volume of fuel.

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
