I have been looking into injectors for my low boost set up. From what I have researched the std gti6 ones are good for 235bhp. They flow 74 cc/min each at 100% duty @ 3bar (as flow tested by a Lad over on the drivers forum)
85% duty is 252 cc/min (for all 4)
80% duty is 237 cc/min (for all 4)

I am not an expert on this, but I think we will need bigger injectors. A possible budget soloution would be the Saab Red injectors used on the 2.3 turbos. They have a four hole outlet that will suit our engines (apparently you have different head designs for differnt applications ie 8v and 16v as they want the fuel squirting into differnt places)

Another thing I found was a basic formulae for working out the flow we need.
CC/min x 4/5 = bhp

I assume the 4/5 represents 80% duty which would mean 1 cc of fuel for 1 bhp, is that right?

I am just trying to get some ideas flying around so we can get hunting on Ebay!

Although it doesn't look like it, the standard pump sit's in a swirl pot (the round plastic thing), the pump has 2 pick up's, one from the tank and one from the pot, with a non return valve so the fuel cannot drain from the pot back into the tank. I tried fitting a walbro pump into the standard pot, but you have to remove the non return valve to do it. It doesn't work, as soon as the tank is less than half full you will get severe fuel surge on cornering. The only way to do it is to run the standard pump feeding a swirl pot and then a high pressure pump from there.


Mine sits a lot lower now with supporting brackets. I only have problems with really low fuel and reserve is a little less effective.

P.S Rich where have you routed your power steering cooler?

I routed it to the bin and left it there Laugh

No need for it, just took it out and joined the pipes together....

Gary,

In principle your calculations are correct; however it's really a case of getting the first car on the dyno and seeing what they can give.

It depends on many things, BSFC particularly which isn't known until the car is tuned up properly. The BSFC of my car is 0.56 though, if you want to use that for the purposes of calculations.

You can increase the flow capability of the standard injectors by increasing duty cycle from 80% (my 440 cc/min injectors are at 100% duty above 7K RPM), and increasing the fuel pressure from 3 BAR to 4 BAR as I have done.

With some extra duty cycle, and increased fuel pressure, you should be able to get close to 250BHP on standard injectors.

You can get a 4 BAR regulator from VW VR6 engines amongst other sources, which will fit straight into the fuel rail. Or you could get an FSE style adjustable regulator.

Until you I get the 1st car done I can't offer conclusive advice, but if bigger injectors are needed, I would get the Bosch 440 cc/min as I use. These work well with the standard ECU, and will give enough for 400 BHP if you ever fancy more power after the 250 BHP conversion.

The Bosch 440 cc/min injectors are best bought from eBay US.

Much cheaper than here.

You can get 8 of them for $440 inc. delivery... That works out at £216 for 8. So you can sell the other set of four, and they will then cost you £108. Extremely cheap for brand new injectors...

See here

Another note is that unless all people buy the same injectors for the low-boost setup, I won't be offering a generic map/ECU flashing service. Each car will require a custom map. It's not a bad thing - just a little more money. I need to chat with Chip Wizzards more on the matter.

I think custom remaps may be the best solution because people are buying all different size intercoolers etc.

Its open to discussion.

Thanks rich,

Regarding your point about using the big injectors, that does seem to solve the problem with good future potential but, I was under the impression that if the injectors are too big they are hard to control under lower loads. Otherwise I would have thought most manufacturers would use massive injectors all the time.

Having said that, your car probably has similar characteristics to the low boost version from low to mid range then goes nuts when the boost comes in at the top end. Which would suggest it is OK to use the big injectors!

Personally, I was thinking having a custom remap because my car is a little different from the majority of the conversions anyway.

PS What is BSFC?!

Garry

The low boost conversion will be identical to mine upto circa 5000 RPM, at which point the boost control ring will start to become restrictive and the boost will start to increase more slowly.

So, on that basis, the bigger injectors will be fine - your right in saying you shouldn't over-size them or you will have problems at idle etc, but there is enough scope on the standard ECU to adjust for this, my car idles exactly as a standard car does.

I wouldn't go bigger than 440 cc/min though.

BSFC is Brake Specific Fuel Consumption. Its the amount of fuel the engine uses per horse-power produced.

Generally 0.4-0.5 for N/A engines, and 0.5-0.65 for forced induction engines.

For example, for my car, 390 HP x 0.56 BSFC = 218.4 lbs/hr of fuel at full chat, or 2.29 litres/min.

That means it would cost me about £2.50 a minute to run if I drove at 7000+ RPM everywhere Laugh Shock

Surely running them at 100% won't do the injector driver any good?

I'll be happy if they'll cope with 250bhp @ 90% duty cycle.

Think I'm inlclined to upgrade though; better to be safe than sorry. Dry

100% has been fine on mine.

I guess its down to the build quality of injectors.

Zac, Wayne has given me a load of part numbers for Bosch injectors which he feels are well suited to the low boost conversion. Will post them tomorrow. If not the 558's (what i'm using) should be OK). Also had a chat with him about getting your car booked in.

My intercooler arrived todayThumbs up
Total cost delivered £150.
Best thing was that the vendor put the value on the customs paperwork at $100 and ticked the box to say it was a gift without me asking him to, so no import duty to pay.
What a result, I'm well chuffed with it, just need to rip the front end off now to see how it will fit.
Its a big fookerWhistle




Cool

I dont think they are the same ChrisUnsure yours is for an RX7


And mine is for a Buick Grand National AM

Mine is:
Core Size: 18"X12"X4"
Overall Size: 25"x16"x4"
3" Inlet & Outlets
4" Thick Core
Like I said its a big fooker

I'm sure there will be bugger all difference though.

Cool

I am hoping that the bigger core will reduce the speed of the air & reduce the temp of the inlet chargeDunno

Should do.

Downside is there's a big f*ck-off intercooler to fill up everytime you get on the throttle Razz

I've read the thread Smile But i have some questions to be sure that i was understand whole right.
All my questions are about Low boost (up to 250bhp).

1. is it needed to mount oil cooler ?
2 I have to make lower compresion or it isnt needed? but if is, how to do it? With low compresion gasket or custom pistons?
3.I dont need any forged part, it right?
4.the clutch will be standard but gearbox need to fit 5 from Hdi?
5.Full costs without Rotax charger is about 1k?
With full option (charger, IC etc) its about 3-3,5k ?
6.What about low rev? between 1,5- 3k rev,the car is weaker than standard gti6?
7. After this mod we dont have power steering?
8.Does somebody know , times at 0-60mph, 0-100mph, and ¼ mile for low boost (aprox 250bhp)?
9. How much fuel i need to do 60 miles at the city, if i drive slow, up to 3k rev?
That Rotax charger increase fuel consumption at low rev? (up to 3k)
10. Standard injectors are good up to 250bhp?
