6 x Xspurt 1000's and Proflow RB25 rail would be around $800 through me I think Mark, with all adapters.

Scotty - will that rail fit with the stock plenum? We are looking at going to E85 in the next few months, so I am interested in an injector upgrade.

I think so mate, the 1000's might be a tight fit, but the shorty 750's and 2000's are definitely no issue. I may even be able to get 1000's in the same shorter 1/2 length.

The SR20 rail kit I sell comes with a plenum spacer to help the 1000's clear the upper plenum. Perhaps you could do a similar thing to the RB plenum halves using bakelite or a similar insulating material, that way you would stop the heat transfer into the upper plenum also.

What paper filter are you using, I was told to be careful when use paper filter cause the ethanol can/does eat away the "glue" that holds the filter element to the casing

I'm using a speed flow 10 micron stainless sceen filter but the paper ones can go down to 5-6 micron which would be better

I am using twin Proflow stainless mesh filters, I haven't cleaned them in 3-4 years, since they were installed. I can't remember what micron they were...

The paper filters I have been buying were SX brand, suitable for alcohol fuels. (They have a similar 8an housing to the proflow/Speedflow style filters, and might just drop in to them.) I run the SX fuel reg in my car without issues so I knew it was good gear.

A little Googling reveals Arram as a Japanese manufacturer who make injectors, throttle bodies and carburetors.

Yeah, just wasn't much info and didn't know if these were common in rb20's or not.

Most of the stuff says 550cc, so should be all good, cheers. ;)

Hopefully it doesn't cost you too much dyno time to set them up, it can take a while to work out suitable lag times etc with unusual injectors, and you are paying good coin for every minute it's on the dyno.

Unless you have the lag time report with them? Might be worth trying to source one.

Never knew injectors even came with a "Lag time report" lol..

I was going to get them tested and flowed before I chucked them on anyway. I think they're a little old.. :P

To save starting a new thread.....

Is the contents of this thread still relevant?!?!

As in are the ID injectors still worth paying basically twice the price or are the EV1-Bosch items closer to the mark 5 years down the track?

(Looking for 11mm units to suit standard RB26 fuel rail to get me around the 400rwkw mark on E85...)

ID1300x or 1250cc.....?!?

There are better options (than ID specifically) and have been for years.  You should perhaps PM Scotty to find out what he can do for you.

Basically, if you can get unmolested EV14 injectors in the size you need, that is best approach.  But even the ones that have been decapped are pretty good.

I had tried pming Scotty before posting but either his inbox is full or there's an SAU issue as i just get an error saying he can't receive messages, or something similar....

Cheers for the reply though....

I do have the 1250cc injectors that Kudos sell in my 'cart' but after reading a few threads on here and then googling I was having second thoughts....

Tier 1 - ID 

Tier 2 (½ the price) - Bosch Motorsport

Tier 3 (aka shit and not worth it, also ¼ the price) - Everything else

Genuine Bosch Motorsport '040' injectors with adapters for RB26 manifold would be the go. I'm sure NZEFI sell them as a kit.

    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
    • Sorry I meant that we are building the EH for a client.
    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
