Highflowing Injectors

[luvpsi]

hey guys i was wondering would highflowing your standard rb25det injectors be worth it. i have heard you can highflow the standard injectors to 740cc at the fraction of the cost of aftermarket injectors like sard etc.

im ony looking at putting a hypergear atr43 g3 on my rb25det and running roughly 18psi im only looking for about 340rwkw max would thisd be a better option than buying aftermarket injectors?

if so where can i get them highflowed in perth

I'm also looking into this option.

Injectors for RB engines seem really really over prices compared to say an LS1/XR6 Turbo

yeah i know and im only looking at running it as a streeter nothing special so why spend the big bucks on aftermarkets when i can get same thing for fraction of cost. i have spoken to a few people that have got them and they say they have not had a problem

Im interested in how much bigger you can get them and whether the flow characteristics are a compromise over proper sized injectors.

from what i have read rb25de injectors you can highflow to 550cc and rb25det injectors can be highflowed to 740cc. the flow characteristics im unsure ill search some more and find out

nah sorry mate its only a streeter and 1000cc will be over kill and plus i dont want to go to top feed i rather stick to the side feeds

Apparently all you need is to burn a 15 thou opening in the center of the injection ports, which sort of turns them to 800ccs. The spray pattern would be pretty horrible I guess.

sounds too dodgy to save a few bucks, you want them all flowing the same and a good spray pattern if you want a hope of good economy.

who wants fuel economy in a performance car lol if you want fuel economy go buy a hybrid camry or prius

[Rolls]

people who say that are retarded, you can have 500hp and still get great fuel economy, the two aren't exclusive, you spend about 5% of the time on full boost in a street car so you can retain your 13L/100km and still make massive power.

You save what $500 highflowing injectors? you'd make that back in a single year if you are using 2L/100km more and driving roughly 450km a week, also you'd get a better idle and cruise.

i guess i see where you are cming from but mine doesnt get driven everyday its a weekend car andi also dont pay for fuel i get a company car and free fuel so most driving is done in that

13L/100km? f**k that lol....around town = 11L/100km, and highway = ~9.2L/100km when my car was standard.

if you honestly got 11/100 around town then you must have had a very well sorted tune and driven it very easily.

the 13 I get is peak hour driving everyday with a lead foot and 240kw, I think it is pretty damn good.

I had my injectors hi flowed to 600cc, all flowed with in 2cc of each other when flow tested, they are really pretty good
