I'm in need of some advice. I've spent several days researching injectors, brands, flows, etc. and I'm not 100% positive on what works. I have a set of JECS red top side feed for my RB25DET S1 and two went bad. From what I have read is the JECS red tops flow at 225cc and ohm reading at 14.8. Can anyone else confirm this? Also, I have a hard time finding a straight answer on if it's ok to go larger in flow size even is your motor doesn't require it. Most forum discussions get way off topic and it seems like it's never truly answered. I plan to call a local shop to have the injectors cleaned and serviced at $18 each but I don't want to spend the money if I can throw in a larger size injector for larger power numbers down the road. I've found a local guy who would sell me a set of 600cc at 11.5 ohms for a couple hundred.Would this work or just flood out the motor? I would appreciate any advice or comments anyone may have.

Surely you don't want to put in bigger injectors without a tune?

If you do of course it will flood. The ecu doesn't know you have put in bigger injectors.

No tune means stock injectors. It's that simple.

As ben said, if you're running sock ecu then stick to stock injectors or it will run like arse and you'll just waste fuel. If you're still running the stock turbo then stick with the stock injectors as you don't need the bigger injectors.

Save putting in the bigger injectors until you plan on putting a bigger turbo on and then just do it all then.

The turbo is the hks Kai setup with the greddy eManage. Have a greddy intake, ku engineering tb, greddy fmic, and hks built head. This is what i know so far. Bought the car as is and still finding more aftermarket parts every time I look at it.

Thank you everyone for your input. I took the injectors down to the local shop to be cleaned and flowed. Guy there said they looked like a custom flow set. Something about the ends not being originals. See what happens in the next few days.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
