Default fuel injector must?

If I end up buying a chipped OBD1 (will that adjust to boost?) and a turbo set up, will I need bigger injectors too? help please.

you cannot just buy a chipped ecu to use it with any setup... usually chipped ecu add **** loads of timing and fuel...

whatever you do... just buy a chipped(by chipped i mean socketed) ecu and have it tuned for your setup.

expletive you.


Well I wanted to know that, plus will i need bigger injectors for 5-6 lbs of boost? Some ECU's like spoon ones claim that the ECU will adjust to whatever your car needs... is that just some bs?

The reason why people get their ecu's chipped is so they can run the right mixture of air/fuel. They use the basemap to get the car running properly and then they go get it tuned. Your ecu does not change how much boost you're boosting.

Search for "SAFC hack" or something similar

Basically you put oversized injectors on, then use the SAFC to lower the level of the signal your MAP sensor sends the ECU. You can make it to where the ECU never even sees boost because the signal has been lowered so much that it never reaches boost (always sees vacuum). And since the ECU sees such a small level it turns the injectors way down....which happens that they are way oversized and thus even out.

Or checkout Hondata


"chipped" (like Jet, or those so called Spoon specials on Ebay) ECU's are just a bad idea in general. There pretty crude and with how this industry has advanced over the last 5 years and the level of understanding that is out there for these cars, its just a outdated method.

Most chipped ECU's just add some fuel and increase the timing. Timing is one to make more power, but its a safe way to do. Adding more fuel and air is simply the better way to make more power. Timing increases the pressure inside the cylinders. When you add more fuel and air from a turbo your also increasing that pressure...so more timing is bad!

You will have to get bigger injectors if you plan on running any real amount of boost. A small T25 turbo at 6 PSI might be OK on stock injectors...but then your only talking 20-30 HP, big woop

The stock injectors simply don't provide enough fuel (safely) to make much more power. So you have to get bigger ones. RC is a good company to go with.
