just need some help with this, i have all the supporting mods and want to make around the 260rwkw.

almost at tune stage but need to know whether or not i need to buy bigger injectors or whether i can just put a fuel pressure reg on it and bump up the pressure.

i have an ignition DVD with a hybrid 25/30 in it making 280rwkw on standard injectors, how is this done, i thought they max out at around 220-230???

also if i do have to put injectors in it, will i also need to put a reg on it??

cheers in advance

injectors. when u put in a adj fpr, u are moving curves that aren't usually moved. making the whole tuning process a lot more difficult.

just go injectors and a decent management system.

dont cheap out on it.

hey SL1D1N, I in no way mean to hijack your thread, I am in a similar position (should have similar power by this weekend) then will need a tune and fuel system upgrade, and I was going to ask a similar question as you,thought it might just be able to be answered here instead of opening up a new thread....

So to upgrade the fuel system, you don't need to get a FPR if you get new injectors and pump? and does that mean a fpr just uses your current injectors to spray out more then what they are meant to? wot about your fuel filter when upgrading?

Thanks mate, Adam

BTW good luck with the tune!

Using a FPR to increase the pressure to get more head room out of your maxed out injectors is a short cut. If you are going to chase bigger numbers down the track you are going to eventually need bigger injector anyway so you may as well get them in the first place.

Yep, s15 sr20 480cc side feeds, or any of the 550cc ones are fine for up to 300rwkw(or 350 for the 550's) Upgrade the pump and keep the stock reg. What management are you guys running.

Awsum, thanks for that. I thought my mate was full of cr*p when he said I need fuel pump,injectors AND a fpr...

I have a powerfc and commander :)

      Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
