1000cc for a daily ?

[Jjstyle]

Still finishing up some things on the 6 bolt swap and rebuild, but my injectors tested bad and may be acquiring a 20g this week so figured its the perfect opportunity to "overbuild". Curious if I went with 1000's (tuned obviously) if it will effect drivability any for normal driving? any downsides?. My power goals are 350-400 eventually

If you have a tuning device like like or a stand alone they will work and be fine. If you have an SAFC that wont work. How are you gonna tune for them? I dont see anything in your profile for mods.

 

[WES_393]

You shouldn't have any issues so long you properly compensate for them. What are you tuning with?

 

[Jjstyle]

I have a flashable ecu...a local guy on the forums is going to help me on the first tune with ceddy.

 

[Rsawd95dsm]

Sorry I cant be of anymore help as I have never dealt with a flashable ECU yet.

I run 720's tuned on ecuflash myself and the car runs and idles perfect. As long as you scale them correctly an get the latencys right you shouldn't have an issue.

I thnk you'll be fine. I have a MHI big 16g with 268 S1 cams and 880cc injectors and i have no problem. I drive my car to school and work everyday.

I have a friend who dd's his 2G GSX and has a 16G with 1200cc injectors... But he has AEM, I don't see a problem with the 1000cc for dd as long as they are tuned for it

 

[oneslowwdsm]

1000's are perfect for a 20g. Run some e85 and you are at your goal already.

I DD a 20g with 950cc injectors.

A good tune you should have good gas mileage and no drivability issues

youre going to want to go with engine management vs. a piggyback.

i recommend DSMLink. if your ecu is already eprom then youre ready for the chip to be soldered right in. It is 500$ for the full version or 350$ for the lite and maybe 30$ to have ti soldered in professionally.

personal experience I wouldnt go over 750s with any kind of piggyback tuning program, its jusst going to be too sketchy dialing them in. go with dsmlink and youll thank me later. there are zero cons and too many pros to count.. 1 being your injectors are so well controlled youd never see any weird idle.

also with a piggy back youre looking at extra money for a logging program and after its all said and done youve spent nearly as much money as buying DSMlink which comes included with a great logging capability. plus with link you can tune your OWN car not put your motor in the hands of someone else.

sorry i effing love dsmlink.

I DD a car with 1650's for the longest. No complaints

Coming from MY experience. I'd just recommend getting the largest injector that suits your needs.

Anyone that has a good Idea what they are doing shouldn't have an Issue getting ANY Issues getting them running just fine.

My car runs the same regardless what is controlling things be it a custom Chip of mine, Ecmlink or Flashable Ecu. It's just a matter of getting things set correctly.

The majority of issues I see people having are with BM 1450+ cc Injectors or 1600's and aside from the issues that come with the latter. The BM's 1550-1850 injectors are overkill for most people as it is. But most the problems I see people having with the can be attributed to some issue with the car or setting things up wrong and not the Injectors themselves. Obviously with a low injectors rs the larger they are the more deadtime that is required. There are as well of course some attributes that just come with that style of injector. But nothing to drastic or anything that someone that actually needs that size of injector isn't going to be willing to deal with(mainly just the response time).

But there is no reason will anyone that has a good understanding of how to "properly" set things Can't for any manner at least a 850-1350cc low z injector or any Hi z for that matter.

Also This is just a pet peeve of mine but there is a big difference between "Dsmlink" and ECMLink V3.

To the OP

I'd recommend Picking up a set of FIC 1050 or 1150cc injectors so you have a bit of breathing room if you want to be able to Run E85 and get your goal easier. You won't have any issues with them running a H8 Ecu Keep in mind though that the Injector deadtimes may end up being a bit lower then the "norm" here as they have better Injector drivers then the older Eprom Ecu's.

So could he stick with low Zs or should go with high Zs when going 1000+ ?

 

[snowborder714]

Either one will work. I've been on low-z FIC 1150's for years and the car acts perfect. I've got a friend who just got the FIC 1100 high-z and I don't notice a difference. The options of high-z injectors between 1100 and 2150 are extremely limited, if not non-existent.

k sounds good

Just to chime in, I dd 1100cc Injectors with a 20g and have no issues. I do however have them tuned with DSMLINK. Once they're dialed in its just like running stock...
