Injector Spray Pattern Important?
Hi Guys, I'm currently looking to upgrade my Bosch EV14 GT500 640cc injectors. These injectors have a split cone spray pattern for the two ports.
I'm struggling to find a Bosch (or similar) split cone around the 1000cc mark. The split cone makes so much sense. I know a lot of guys run the single cone spray pattern. Am I worrying about nothing? Thoughts? Engine is BP4W, E85, turbo, track only. |
Just buy ID1050x or whatever their newest is and be done with it.
|
If you're that worried just buy ID1050x. Best aftermarket injector there is. I'd bet the farm that you can't tell the difference between split cone and single cone when they're in the car.
|
Split cones require proper clocking and I worry about the patterns being more finicky down the road.
I'm with the others. Get the highest quality standard injector available. The amount of airflow in the port (especially under boost) makes the injector pattern shape a moot point. How well the fuel is atomized is more important IMO. IDs are usually the answer. |
Another vote for ID1050X they are great. Idle way better than stock even on a non modified motor

Thanks to all. I put my same OP on a engine build page on Facebook. Pretty much the same response as you guys. single spray it is. I just bought some Bosch 0280158040 units. Got them flow matched. 980cc @ 3 bar

Yeah those aren't the same as Injector Dynamics, you didn't do what we suggested. Cheers.

It's an oxymoron!
A "Lo cost" that is NOT! Looks like fun. I really like IDs But, I would not pay double either... |
