4.22 to 4.89 Injectors
So am gathering parts like a mother hen and get the wild hair to go to Marren and by two new balanced injectors.
Well my stock is 4.22 gm/sec. I decided since I had a duel 50 MM TB, I would move up to a Stage 1 injector. This flows at 4.89 gm/sec.
I did not want to go outrageous on size as I feel I probably can support my soon to be 98" with 585/615 sticks on the stock injectors, but hey why not go a little bigger? Now I know I don't need 6 gm/sec injectors and never will, but what have I done by going up this bit?
I know in the TCFI setup with 4.8 gm/sec in the injector size, PW in msec is 10.65. And with the 4.22gm/sec in the injector size, PW in msec is 12.34.
It seems I have lowered my PW time to achieve the same amount of fuel, but what does that really mean in real world riding? I would think less time on PW would allow faster fuel delivery for changing engine requirements?
FWIW the guys at Marren are pretty cool to talk to. The one thing about their flowing of injectors is they make the injectors "work" to sustain and verify the flow rate. By that I mean most injectors are rated at their flow by being held wide open and the flow is measured. Marren uses the technique of making the injectors pulse with the injectors electromagnetic as they would in driving conditions, in other words opening and closing to achieve their flow. Big difference there.
