Hey guys,

I was just a bit unsure as to wether if i upgrade to 500cc injectors you also need a fuel pressure regulator to support them, or if the std reg. will deliver the pressure required by them.

Also at the momement im running 0.9bar and injector duty reaches 100% with bosch 910 pump and hks2535, with untuned ecu, has anyone got such high levels with that relatively low boost?

Id like to be running about 1.2 - 1.3 bar and i cant see how a good tune and a fuel pressure reg. will drop the duty cycle by much.

Can anyone shed some light...

Thanx :headspin:

You shouldn't need a regulator if you upgrade the injectors. You will be running the same fuel pressure you are now, just the injectors will flow more fuel into the cylinders at the same pressure. You would have issues if you hadn't upgraded your pump, but you have so it should all be ok.

You can also install a rising rate regulator instead of bigger injectors, this is a much cheaper option but can put more of a strain on your injectors. Plus if it ever fails, you will lean out all 6 cylinders pretty much instantly. I have not heard of anyone in here having a regulator fail though, so it could be a viable option.

      Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.

      Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.

      Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?

      1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
