is my stock injectors sufficient enough ?

michaelb · February 18, 2007, 02:28:45 PM

Hi

I have 96 Bathurst with the Apexi pfc fitted and a base map (boost lifted to 0.92).

I am going to have dragon performance silenced mid pipe fitted (hopefully Wednesday) and also in the very near future Blitz Induction Kit from Shy Autos (Cliveâ€™s)

Will I need my injectors and the fuel pump changed as well or is the stock set up sufficient enough to handle the modsâ€¦.

Has any one had similar mods with stock injectors working fine? What is your maximum injector duty with the mods above?

Regards,
Michaelb

The only thing I would be looking at is making sure you dont get boost creep might be worth looking at getting a boost controller, if you stick to the same boost level you wont have any problems [if the map is safe that is]

I was running with a silenced mid-pipe and cold air induction with a sensibly mapped PowerFC and did not have any problems.

Thanks for the reassurance. Do I have to get a map at say power gains or reworks or can my base map put on by ant from here ( he set it up a little richer to be safe ) handle the mods?

That\'s something that I can\'t answer as I\'m not familiar enough with mapping.

Whenever I change something in the system I like to get it re-mapped to see the effect of the change and to ensure reliable running.

Michael,
You dont have a base map, you have a modified map.

Ant

How are you doing !!!!

OK, so it is not a base map. So I guess I can say the car was mapped ready for my mods, right?

I am still enjoying the map you put on my Apexiâ€¦as you can see do not know too much about mapping. What was actually increased? Fuelling?

I am going on Wednesday to Power gains to have a engine service done and possibly fit my dragon performance silenced mid pipe ( we spoke about it on the phone)

Trying to get as much info as possible re my mods ..
