Most boost on stock injectors?
 
What is the highest boost you guys have run on your stock injectors? List turbo size and fuel management when replying please.

I ran a 2560 at 8psi on stock injectors. Maxing out at 155% DC, woo-hoo.

EDIT: I'm sorry, I spiked at 11psi once and hit 225% DC. With the log to prove it.

A friend of mine had a 92 miata, Greddy kit with the fuel riser, FMIC intercooler, and a greddy e-manage. He got up to 9psi. Can't remember the HP but I think he hit 178ish.

I assume you were able to maintain proper AFR at 8 psi on your 2560, but at 11 psi I'm thinking you went a tad lean!

rider384 03-17-2011 11:56 PM

Actually, at 225 it was at a dead even 10.5

Un-F'n-believeable! That's pretty awesome!
My reasoning for this thread was simply because when I run my car on stock injectors, it runs pretty smooth. When I run the 460's it runs smooth most of the time, then sometimes not. I even tried a brand new set of 460's. I just feel they're unnecessary for what my car needs are. I drive it as a daily driver in nice weather, and I really don't need to see over 10 psi, so why use 460's if I really can get away with stock injectors? It ain't like I'm running a voo-doo box, I use MS2 Standalone.

On factory fuel pressure and pump, I ran 8 psi, I think I was at 130% DC.

rider384 03-18-2011 12:05 AM

Raise the pressure with stock injectors and you should be good to go, depending on power levels.

thirdgen 03-18-2011 12:15 AM

I'm guessing that on my setup 10psi would be right around 200whp.

BenR 03-18-2011 12:46 AM

15g, vortec rrfpr, 190HP fuel pump, megasquirt, 12psi.

I didn't run it like this for long before getting 550's.

There's always rx8 yellow injectors, oughta atomize even better than stock injectors.

Braineack 03-18-2011 09:50 AM

They are either locked open or not. anything above 90% or so is completely open.

I maxed my 305cc injectors at 7psi, which was around 170rwhp.

dynokiller90 03-18-2011 05:43 PM

12lbs. 1.6 on tan tops. vortech sfmu and walboro 255hp stupid fuel pressure my guage stopped at 130psi. it would hold 11/1 af though. not that I'd recommend doing so.

Reverant 03-18-2011 06:21 PM

460s and 550s don't idle well. Shitty injectors but ok for cheapo projects.

samnavy 03-18-2011 06:26 PM

Sr20DET T25, Walbro 190lphHP, Bipes, O2Clamp, stock 1.6litre motor, 110psi fuel pressure, reman'd tan-tops... 14psi and just fine until I got 305's. Right around 200whp.

Is that a blanket condemnation of all injectors rated at 460 or 550cc, or did you have a bad experience with one particular brand or style of them?

I ask only because I didn't find the 465cc injectors which I got from Five-O to be particularly shitty, and the car idled well enough with them on to pass a CA smog inspection.

BenR 03-18-2011 06:52 PM

I gave him the benefit of doubt and assumed he was talking about these injectors on a stock computer with an "adjusted" AFM.

TrickerZ 03-18-2011 06:55 PM

I'd also like to know as I bought some low impedance EVO 550s hearing they were much better. I got the individual injector driver board for my MS2 for them, too.

flounder 03-18-2011 07:51 PM

I maxed out my red tops with stock fuel pressure and about 7-8 psi seeing low 12 afrs.

danotakulus 03-18-2011 08:48 PM

I'm running cleaned and flowed 1.6 injectors with diypnp at 7psi (8.5 spike). IIRC, when they were cleaned they were flowing 230cc, even though they are rated at 212cc
