Thank you, some injectors do not accept MTBE especially 2000cc, is there some 1600 or more injectors that accept Q16 ?

Not yet unless you go low impedance. Lots of options at that point.

The fuels mentioned above are the most commonly used that have MTBE that we see:

Q16
VP Import
C85
Also, FTW Purple, and I believe some other FTW fuels contain MTBE.

The good news is we have a new 1650cc injector that is compatible with all fuels including those with MTBE. They've been working really well for our customers and we're really excited to finally have them available. If you need, crank them up to 5 bar base fuel pressure for an effective flow rate of over 2000cc.




Read more about them here: FIC 1650 HighZ

Here's the link to the 1650s for the B-Series, and of course we have them available for all applications: 1650cc FIC Honda/Acura Fuel Injector Clinic Injector Set (High-Z)

Finally! Look's promising for MTBE users. I would love to run theses injectors so I can finally run Q16!

We switched one of our race cars to the new FIC 1650cc injectors and we couldn't be any happier. On the dyno, the A/F and duty cycle stayed consistent pass after pass. The car ran very consistent at WCF and we can't wait to switch all our cars to this new style injector.

We use VP C85
