Use 4 big ones. Far better. Far cheaper. Far more reliable.

I am running greys in mine at the moment, produced 437 bhp at fly and 387 lb/ft at the wheels today at well lane. What injectors can i upgrade to as i would like a bit more power, its running a T38 turbo.

Cheers
Andy

Robbie, i dont think 8 injectors are really needed anymore.

the cost of the loom, ecu, injectors and inlet etc will cost far more than buying a set of high impedance injectors from the likes of Stu.

Andy, two quick choices id suggect if you felt the need to upgrade, either 55lb siemens injectors or the 83lb siemens injectors - again, both available at good prices via Stu

I'd just go with 4 big injectors mate. But I'd prefer the bragging rights of an 8 injector loom, I'm funny like that lol

Escy ecu way more pwerful than shonkly old ones fitted to 8 injector setups.
I would go with 4 larger ones as cheaper/easier, less to go wrong as well, and the same result power wise.
