ok great, I've heard very good things about them from several tuners, however, it's frustrating that I can't use the injectors I've bought already!

Does anyone know anything about the DW 1500s? I'm getting a bit lost between what's made by Bosch and what build in conjunction with Bosch/DW/ID.. Anyone clear this up?

Cheers

And what happens when the 1500cc injectors can't be scaled correctly? I think you should be looking at your ecu selection before shelling out for new injectors again.

The 1500's have just been released, they are based on the stainless 1300's that ID contracted Bosch to make. If you plan to keep running the Wolf, perhaps asking Aznew to swap the 1400's for ev14 1000's is a better option? They will run a little better down low I imagine.

I was thinking that may be the case Scott. I will quite possibly downsize to 1000s however of course, the stainless internals is what I wanted in the first place and if the only choices are xspurt 1400s or ID1300s, it doesn't leave me too many options.

Now that you have told me about the 1500s just being released, I will steer clear of those at the moment too.

I will definitely upgrade the ecu in time but the problem I have is that I live overseas 8 months of the year and only have a short time to get it sorted.. a better ecu will have to be next time round.

Are the EV14 1000s fairly good at withstanding ethanol?

The only thing I was told about the EV14 1000's is that if they are left sitting for a while you may get issues with ethanol, but driving all the time shouldnt have any problems

The 1300cc Stainless injectors are the ones designed to cope 100% with ethanol, but you pay the price. 1000's should be fine unless the car sits for weeks on end etc

That is the case with the EV14's that started life as a Bosch 550cc that was de-capped/hi-flowed to 1000cc like the ID1000's.

The "New" EV14 1000cc injector from Bosch is stainless and designed specifically to run ethanol etc.

Ok cool. Cheers for the info everyone. Looks like I will have to flush the system with unleaded before letting it sit regardless.

If I run the 1000s I hope I can get enough out of them. Would hate to go through the whole conversion process to find I don't make a power gain because I run out of injector..

Ahh right. Yeah I have seen a little bit on the new proper 1000cc's.

Wish these were around when I'd bought mine but ill live

Me too, I have ID1000's in my car at the moment, I've seen the spray pattern difference between the ID1000 and the new Bosch 1000's....and the new ones are much better

      Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.

      I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.

      From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.

      They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
