Looking at bits for fueling the 16v conversion. Im particularly interested in tuned examples, if you've upgraded the injectors, and stuff like that

Thanks, Dan

Standard 180cc BMW injectors are good for 130ish bhp so that basically means they are ok for most NA conversions. If you are going turbo or higher end of NA tuning you will need to fit 220cc.

That's the way I understand it anyway!

i ran 150cc injectors and 3.5bar when NA @130bhp.

I now run 440cc injectors with the turbo, bit overkill i think, but will support crazy power / boost if required....

So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

you know what i mean lol

if you run on e85 for example the injectors will need to flow about a third more or something like that,

if your stuffing a load of toluene in the petrol you might need 15% more flow.

Lambda unit of measure is the future. Lambda 0.85 on petrol is still lambda 0.85 on E85 but the afr is hugely different
