yes. but its much easier to get the code off the side and type it into google. there is hundreds of different bosch injectors, so the chance of there only being one pink injector is slim. ________________________________________ 309 GTi6-T |

not directly, but you'll often hear certain sets referred to say for instance "cossie greens"you'd have to check what the part number is on them and have a google, also check the fuel pressure. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Standard ones are IW204's the pink ones I have are 0280155216 which I believe are off 2.0 16v 406'sThe green injectors flow - 265 cc/min @ 3 bar The pink injectors flow - 186 cc/min @ 3 bar Does this mean that I wont be able to get the max potential bhp from my engine? |

as its a stock engine you're probably just about safe in their duty cycle, but if you ever want to upgrade the cams you'll need more injector and a remap for sure.do you have a wideband lambda on it? ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

iirc the xsi had pink injectors, and obviously that doesnt have as much bhp.________________________________________ Dimma + Gt35 turbo = Solid rear beam mounts £130 07889376885 Dan |

MRP - do you end up with much oil spraying around the engine bay with that filter on your oil breather rather than a catch tank? |

There use to be an Xsi engine in there but I put a gti6 engine in, I guess thats why it has pink injectors? gti-dan wrote: MRP - do you end up with much oil spraying around the engine bay with that filter on your oil breather rather than a catch tank? No oil whatsoever, I have some green injectors do you think I should fit them then? |

no point, it has been mapped on those injectors, it'll just run silly rich on bigger ones without a remap.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Does seem to run a bit rich now, I have all the mapping software so I could do it, any idea what sort of bhp I could gain?Have to say I am quite happy with its performance and economy. |
