$1800 for injectors is a little insane..

Some of the Honda guys have been having trouble with these injectors on idle.

Honda guys ID2000 idle

I'm at work now so I can't find it but there's a video somewhere of ID's working as dropins for a Honda

It's not a perfect comparison though, it's sort of like saying GTR's have shit oil pumps and I have a supra so the supra will need an aftermarket billet oil pump etc. I'd be trying to find someone with a GTR who is having dramas instead of a Honda person.

The old oil compatibilty issue with E85.

From my understanding the "ester" base in the 300V oils is a big no no. Something to do with it breaking down with the alcohol in the ethanol fuels.

Some people say its fine... other people say it wont work... then you have clowns up at Autobarn saying that "no oil in Australia will tolerate E85.... Your car is going to turn into a bucket of mush as soon as you start running that crap"

When my car gets tuned I want to get a oil analysis done with Motul 300V 15W-50 (what I have always run in my GTR) and put this stupid yes, no, maybe, what if bullshit to bed!

indy blues are a fraction of that price :D

If you're shopping by price, there's capable injectors for even as low as $60ea, but shopping by price means there will be trade offs in the product quality/performance etc

to an extent yes, i agree

i still like my kelford cams & garrett turbos though :D

I'm a huge fan of Injector Dynamics injectors. I have a set of ID2000's for my GTR and ID1000's for the missus gts-t. We did the ID2000 drop in test ourselves... stock civic, hondata and ID2000's- idled and drove like a standard car. we even had the receptionist drive it around for a week! nearly stock fuel consumption....

2000cc injectors in a stock honda civic!!!!!

Great spray pattern too.

. . . . at the end of the day you do get what you pay for.

Am I correct that the ID2000 being high impedance doesnt use the resistor pack???

Bit of a noob question but how do you achieve this? custom harness ?just unplug ? bridging plug?

What computer if you dont mind answering?

Am running a pfc and am very interested in the ID injectors had thought ID1000 would be big enough to ensure overheads even on E85 (which isnt available to me , yet)

I decided to check my Mines baffle plates. I have found that the cam lob covers were put pack in the std position not where they should be for the Mines setup which is at the back below the baffle opening.

I have moved them and will see how it goes,.,....

Ok I now have 80% less blow by into my catch can. My guess is when the oil is at the back of the head it gets less aerated and foamed up.

The cam lobe baffles were here

<---- front

Now they are here

The original placement makes sense for the std baffle. I would like to see how it went with extra cam lobe baffles at the rear with the standard rocker cover baffles

My theory is when the oil starts to pool around the lobes it gets aerated and foamed up to the extent it doesn't want to return to the sump easily. The lightness making it travel out the breathers easier. I noted directly after a run when looking at my Provent oil/air separator(screw off lid) that the oil was full of bubbles....not really foamy but very bubbley.

food for thought

i know sweet f/a about catch cans, done a search and alot ends up in talking about other stuff or two people pissing and moaning

my questions

i got a rb30de im about to put in (rb26 head, 10.8-242/252 @ 0.050" cams, oil drain, 10.5:1 blah blah blah etc) intentions bit of circut racing here and there

anyways

are catch cans needed for track?

do catch cans need to be a certain size/ hold a certain volume?

internal filters to seperate the air from oil?

filter on top or plumb back?

or a link would be awesome

    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
