What seems to be the max safe power limit of 1000cc injectors with e85 on a rb26?

Running stock rail pressure (stock fuel reg.)

It's weird cos some results show well over 400rwkw, others only mid to high 300kws

I know you won't be able to tell exactly how much, but are they good enough for around 380-400rwkw ?

As long as your fuel pump is up to scratch, 400rwkw is just under safe limits for E85 on 1000cc injectors.

Easiest way to work it out is this: (keep in mind that this is factoring in all variables and should be considered as a safe estimate)

E85 -

Total cc's / 11 = whp (eg. 1000cc x 6 injectors = 6000cc / 11 = 545hp)

Pump 98 -

Total cc's / 8 = whp (eg. 1000cc x 6 injectors = 6000cc / 8 = 750hp)

Beautiful that's of great help !

Gonna run the new walbro e85 415lph pump with direct power feed and chunky cables

wont have an issue, they seem to be a good thing so far, used around 20-25 without issue. Nice and easy to fit dual intank in a GTR too for 500

+ kw setups.

seems like im on the right path....

a mate has some "bosch indy white" 1600cc injectors, they are low impedance/11mm top o-ring so should be direct fit, are they worth grabbing ?? his willing to give em to me for pretty cheap (of coarse im going to get them ultrasonicaly cleaned and flow tested before install plus new o-rings)

Indy blue and whites are rubbish to tune with. I really don't think people know just how good the latest ev14 style injectors are. I wouldn't consider anything else if your looking at 1000's or above.

We have had some issues with the bosch EV14s lately and I know a big name shop who also has a box of dead ones they've pulled from a number of cars.

They've cost me an engine and almost lost a race engine for the other shop.

Were they cleaned and flowed before use?

Old ones were fine, most recent batch seem to work when they feel like it and lose random amounts of flow at random times.

Don't know what causes it, haven't really looked too far into it yet.

We only buy matched sets with flow reports.

All the failures were with brand new units.

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
