Issues Fitting 1/2 Height Injectors (1300, 1550, 1700, 2000, etc.) with Extenders to RB25 NEO Intake Manifolds


Recommended Posts

Thats a pic of standard injector seated in manifold.Screenshot_20180122-174707.thumb.png.068ceb99a81f538477dbc3e0d8547949.png

Do you think there would be any gains to try and make the injectors sit here compared to where they are sitting with the spacer installed which is approximately 8mm further out.

I would assume we could just drill the injector hole a little to let the spacer go further down.

When i get a chance ill have a go and see what happens lol

I believe the 1550cc aka 1650cc (at 4bar) are more so a pencil stream injector so it wouldn't matter too much.

I've tried to look for spray pattern videos or photos but didn't find any solid evidence of the spray pattern.

In saying all this, I can safely say the 1550cc Bosch injectors actually run very well, dare say better than my old 875cc Siemen DEKA V (stainless shorties). However many variables such as an old tired motor, non NEO head and stock vs non stock parts.

Still same ECU.

Does that top water passage have any requirement other than being a source point for other components?

On inspection, purely to cool the upper area of the manifold, provide water to the bleeder and the turbo.

You could go without feeding it any water and deleting the bleeder and sourcing the water elsewhere

Ill have a better look at it later this week but im sure you can basically cut that top part off and just keep, how do i explain it, like 2 posts where the rail bolts down.

Then screw or weld dash fittings in to the water points you require as they will still be accessable.

Bit of stuffing around to fit injectors but for people that have nothing better to do it might be an option.

    • I'm trying to maintain stock appearance . Hicas is still installed (although has lockout kit) did you retain factory fuel pump hat? If so I assume you used a bulkhead fitting or similar ?  I was also trying to avoid a full re design as it was previously dynoed at 426kw atw with same setup but different pump. Changing return line would also mean having to change ethanol sensor and fpr and possibly fuel rail. Not chasing more power in any way just reliability of the setup 
    • I do think it's weird I had it for 2 weeks then the issue came up out of nowhere and progressively got worse. I would've imagined changing everything in the ignition system would've resolved any ignition related misfires but still has the high rpm and idle misfires that seem unchanged. I would've thought if it was fuel related it would happen all the time unless it's the pump losing pressure when it gets hot. If it was the ecu I would think it would do it all of the time.  Something I noticed when I had it all apart was a pretty decent coating of oil in the J pipe coming from the throttle body. The weird thing about that is the pcv that goes to the intake is blocked off. So that has me wondering if the oil is coming from the turbo because that's the only thing that could get oil in there. This thing does sound like it spools like a mofo like I'm a former dsm guy and the only stock turbo I've ever heard spool this loud (to only go up to about 5psi) is on a diesel truck. And the recirculated bov is really loud too I had a TurboXS RFL and this thing is just as loud and being so low on psi seems a little weird. I don't know if any of this is or isn't related but just trying to make sure I'm not leaving any potentially helpful information out. 
    • So latest update. I replaced the ignitor with a jspec unit from enjuku. It felt a lot better at first although it is a little bit cooler of a day than it has been. Warming up didn't have as much misfire sputtering as before. Went on a 10m test drive. Felt good, a lot stronger though I was taking it easy on the boost. On the return trip started getting the cutting out at higher rpm again and was getting worse the longer I was driving. Took it easy the rest of the way home. Before turning the car off was getting the normal idle sputtering I was getting before.  So where I'm at now, entire ignition system has been replaced with upgraded components. Plugs still gapped at .8mm. Removed the fuel cap in case it was building too much reverse pressure I'm the tank, didn't help at all. Now I'm still on the same tank of gas the fuel treatment was in, I'm thinking if I can run that out and then refill with fresh 93 maybe  the treatment is too concentrated in some areas but doesn't explain that it only does it once the car is warm. I'm leaning towards fuel pump or injectors but if the injector was clogging I don't think it would make it shut off like it has but then fire right back up like nothing happened. So my current guess would be the pump. Without a fuel pressure guage no way to test or check it while it's running.  So that's kind of where I'm at. Need to start testing fuel components and ecu/wiring but I'm at a loss of what's the next logical step and procedure for testing it. 
    • @niZmO_Man thanks for that info, lucky I bought the gktech ones 🤙.
    • Never cheap out on brakes, tyres, suspension. I learnt the hard way at Oran Park lol
