Might have got my grubby paws on to some of these orange coloured injectors! Any good chaps, or overfuelling nightmare?

Reason I ask, still playing with the idea of Standalone, currently have noisy (possibly blocked) injectors, wouldn't mind having these 3.0l ones mapped with the standalone kit, again bad idea? :?

Cheers boyo's!

All the standalones will allow you to swop to bigger injectors Jim, on MSnS-E its a REQ_Fuel calculation which for the yellows is 13.9

Me an Fozz have 600cc/min units , stock are 149.2cc/min 8)

once you've claculted and input that value the rest is relativly straight forward

Do not use with your 2.7 and motronic dude, it will mega overfuel assuming you can get it to run from cold :lol:

Soloution is a 2.5 Bar fuel reg, but then you've gained nothing in the swop M8

Everything asuming you have a laptop to plug into it, you personally can control fuel, spark-thats basing it on megasquirt.

The downside-the cost, or there would be another megasquirt user-me

Hmmmmmmm,

well Emerald have a waiting list till November, Megasquirt seems an option but I'm not DIY at all, I don't have the foggiest with this stuff!

Ant! You're signature suggests you work on automobiles, what about automobiles and megasquirt? :mad:

I wouldn't mind these injectors and megasquirt tbh, the rolling road operator said I'm losing 5-10bhp just from fuelling!
