So what exactly will aftermarket feul injectors do to my frs
So I have the srt header back, and greddy intake, what would a 450cc injector do compared to stock? And what does cc stand for anyways? Sorr if I sound stupid guys but I kinda am:eyebulge:

If you just swapped them then you'd most likely damage your engine.
If you retuned for them then it'd be much the same as it is now. Bigger/higher flowing injectors are for when you're making a lot more power than stock. |

cc is actually cc/min or cubic centimeter per minute. It's the flow rate of the injector but it's still ambiguous because the flow rate changes as the fuel pressure changes. As far as I know the industry standard, if there really is such a thing, is to test automotive injectors at 43 psi. If you increase the fuel pressure the fuel flow will go up. If you increase the air pressure that the fuel is spraying into with forced induction, the flow rate will go down.
Gasoline engines are designed so that the injectors aren't the limiting factor in power so going to a bigger size wouldn't matter. |

If you're running your 300cc injectors at 90% then swap to 1000cc injectors, those new injectors will still run at 90% until you tune it down. |

Give the ECU a bit more credit here... if you ran bigger injectors it wouldn't just run the same duty cycle and ignore the O2 sensor. It would probably end up in limp mode because of how overly rich it was running and an inability to properly compensate, but it's not like it'll just take it and keep going until it hydrolocks.

- the ecu will attempt to compensate for the over fueled condition that will exist any time the Port injectors are running with the long and short term fuel trims. - if the ecu maxes out the fuel trims you will throw a system too rich code If you add larger port fuel injectors with a good tune: - you will add a little bit of peak power production head room since you will effectively reduce the duty cycle of the port injectors - you will be wasting your money if you are not running enough mods to need the additional fueling capacity larger injectors will provide (for example a turbo or stg 2 super charger kit) In short, don't bother until your tuner tells you that you need them and then ask them specifically why you need them. If they can't explain it you then go to another tuner. |
