just curious what the 528i injectors flow like. i know M30 530/535i injectors are approx 200cc or 20lbs/hr and i kow where my stocker M20 items fall but i havent noticed anyone on any of the sites im on giving any info on the 2.8 injectors. 530/535i injectors seems a popular upgrade on M20's (just fit a set myself lol) but i spied a set of 528i units for sale and im wondering would they be sort of halfway in terms of flow between stock M20 units and 3.0/3.5 M30 units or if they would be nearer one or the other to get an idea of whether they might be a worthy upgrade on an M20 or not. :D

use the 535 ones as they can provide greater scope if any further tuning is wanted or just get them cleaned is always an option

have 535 injectors in mine already. just saw the 528 ones for sale and started thinking about what to do with the old rail. maybe stick some half decent injectors on it and give it a clean up similar to what i did with a spare rail i had when i got the 535 injectors. might be flog-able locally as theres a few 6 pot E30's round these parts atm and i seem to be a dab hand at polishing fuel pressure regulators as i have recently discovered..

what i did with my spare M20 rail and the 535 FPR and injectors. also a spare injector loom, stripped the old sleeves for the temp sensors and done them up in heat shrink ending in the german flag colours lol
