How much horsepower will 24 lb injectors support?
Flow Rate Definition, Calculating Horsepower Range
| Injector Flow Rate | Naturally Aspirated Engine | Engine w/ Power Adder |
|---|---|---|
| 24 lbs./hr. | 280-360 hp | 240-300 hp |
| 30 lbs./hr. | 350-450 hp | 300-375 hp |
| 36 lbs./hr. | 425-540 hp | 350-450 hp |
| 42 lbs./hr. | 500-625 hp | 410-525 hp |
Do bigger injectors mean more power?
The larger the diameter, the more fuel an injector can deliver. As fuel injector size increases, there are some unwanted side effects. As an injector’s hole gets bigger, the minimum amount of fuel it can flow also gets larger.
Are bigger fuel injectors better?
Larger throttle body and injectors A larger high-performance throttle body will deliver more horsepower. Depending on what type of engine you have, you can gain as much as 10-20 more horsepower and comparable torque. Also remember that a larger throttle requires higher-flow fuel injectors.
How do I know what size my fuel injectors are?
you need to make a rig to apply +12V across the pins on the injector, and also have a fuel feed with pressure. once you apply the 12V, you measure how much fuel comes out in 1 minute. the volume that comes out of the injector cc’s is the cc/min of the injector @ the psi of the fuel pressure.
When should injectors be upgraded?
It’s suggested to perform professional fuel injection system maintenance every 20,000 miles as a minimum. Due to the nature of high-performance fuel injectors, ultrasonic cleaning is highly advised as well as a test to ensure they are delivering the intended flow rate.
Will bigger injectors hurt mpg?
With larger injectors, tuning can be adjusted for the truck to run well and still get great fuel mileage. There can be a larger injector, running less pulse width, that is actually spraying the same amount or even less overall fuel than a stock injector in certain scenarios, such as cruising down the highway.
Can you run bigger injectors without a tune?
In general, injectors need a tune. Otherwise, your ECU is trying to drive the new, bigger injectors using the duty cycle and dead times for the old, smaller injectors, which means too much gas potentially at the wrong time (i.e. – running rich and potentially missing).
