I am looking to either fit 4 x 1000cc or 8 x 480cc injectors to my project.

Been told the 8 setup will give better spray / mixture with the air for a better burn = more horsepower.

What would be the advantages or using 4 x 1000cc injectors I can only see a downside at the moment? (reduced air mixing, Full ECU reprogram)

I'm using MBE so management is not an issue.

 

I'd use 4 over 8 everytime, less to go wrong, i'll go into why in 5 mins if need be

 

An explanation would be good thanks

 

The reason for this is plain and simple reliability, With 8 inj if/when one stops working mixture goes lean and then bang good bye piston lol, with a 4 inj setup when/if 1 stops working and then you'll run on 3 cylinders. pure reliabilty, less complication, less to go wrong

 

I talked to Simon , as Simon of SECS and he told me he runs japanees injectors, 100Ł each and a big T34 , runs 450HP!
He has done his own map ..... sounds like he knew what was good and what not.

it's alot cheeaper to go 4 injectors, they are 100Ł each but you don't have to buy an 8 injector hardware.

Cheers Kennert

 

Kennert, Simon has practical experience of what happens if one half of the 8-injector setup stops... so I'm sure that has a bearing on why he now uses 4
His ECU will be more than capable of running 4 large injectors with suitable accuracy to work correctly.

 

Hope so because thats what i'll be using on my new purchase

 

It sounds like Simon is the guy to talk to about big horsepower on 4 injector setup
