Whats prob the best to go for with a t34 (when ive got it rebuilt) dark greens or a set of Greys. It will have a 500 cooler, 044 fuel pump, 3 bar, pectel board and chip to suit

But if you had the choice of the both what would be better? As the boy im gettin them off is givin them to me free as he owes me a few favors. Or would i be better off gettin Greys, stickin them on the bay and buyin some seimens blacks? What power are the blacks same sort as the dark greens? Cheers for the above tho!

Pete, won,t Greys be pretty much maxed out @ 440 though i,d imagine...?
Jody, go for Greys and a .48 housing and have yourself a nice Punchy Road car, i had that on mine and it was superb, made 362bhp with similar torque.....

I had it live mapped by Karl, block was wire-rung, Radtec Radiator, 500 cooler, Greys bla bla..
I,ve always said i PERSONALLY think a well set-up T34 Car no matter what the housing makes the best road car imo, i prefered the .48 housing as i just wanted a lag-free punchy car and 360+bhp was plenty for me, i,m an ok driver but believe me it kept me on my toes..

No, it was VERY reliable, i drove it hard and it never missed a beat.

....funny u say that cos didnt belive it either till i talked to 2 other very well know tuners that said if the car was running spot on it would...and does that mean the other cars were wrong aswell....???....ported heads,bigger injectors,bigger turbos making not that much more really.........
Not strictly true about the Greys - they are an odd injector, where one can vary quite differently from another. Officially they are rated at 501cc, or around 50lb, but the set i have for instance all flow over 600cc at 37.5psi. One of the reasons why off the shelf chips for them can be a bit dodgy.

The comment about siemens being a better spray pattern, although banded about by a lot, I'm still waiting for evidence from back to back testing, at the end of the day it's the engine that decides if it likes the "better" pattern it may not.
Go for greys if they are free, I had greens 803's, these were on 80% duty at 300bhp, but that's real power, not fairy story.
I run greys with a slightly modded head, std cams, and a T3/34 a T3 comp housing machined out to take a T34 trim, std .48 ex housing.
My last MOT gave 0.97% CO, and 137ppm this is on a 160,000+ miles bottom end/pistons/rings.
This is NOT on closed loop, as I don't believe in it, a recent trip to Scarborough from east anglia returned 38.8 mpg, this was along the notorious A15 etc route, not A1 steady speed, used 47 litres for 402 miles.
If it's mapped correctly it will drive perfectly, I always go as low as 1000rpm in town even in 4th it pulls hard enough for town traffic dawdling, but 2K upwards is punchy.
Whatever you decide, the best money spent imo is with a decent mapping session, instead of off the shelf chip, the chip would do the job, but the mapping session could yeild so much more.

The NEW rating will be lower, they invariably supply more as they gum up a bit, that's why the ones I have cleaned always flow to new levels, older used ones tend to flow slightly better.

iv used light blues alot and on different specs and never seen that power before,im not slating your power just saying the rollers are being optimistic...so yes everyones elses would also be over...just put it on another rollers soon will tell you..if your ever down my way il put it on mine for free...cheers danny
.......and thanks for the offer because all i ever wanted was a "full boost" graph.........ps Ahmed doesn't belive the power it makes either

.......next stage for me would be either 8 injector or pectel ecu and seimens......but i think both of them options will cost ALOT............so my next project might be "save weight" and make a FoCos...........same spec engine 4x4 focus crack...

lol...ahmed cant map now!!!pete that is great power and is consistant with other rollers...i wouldnt bother changing anything unless you ever go for say 500+..i dont think many tuners would believe it but hey its defo consistant...lol...cheers danny
another reason for that is because he has so many realy nice maps on light blues hence saving lots of time with a very good base map...before all these siemens came popular alot of tuners prefared light blues to greys..danny
If I had to buy new, I would not buy greys as they are no longer made, and bosch has only 600 injectors left(greys), so will all the spares dry up in a few years ?
Of course any presently made injector if having to buy as opposed to being given free has got to be a better bet.
If I was using someone who shied away from doing something like this, you'd hear the door shut as I left.
I have a soft map for bad conditions, which is around 200bhp, but copes perfect on greys.
I regularly do 6-8 hours of city work not over 1500rpm, doesn't miss a beat ever, the bottom end delivery is defo better on greys than dark greens.
I'm running mine with resistors, but didn't to start with, as I forgot!!
Amazingly the ecu coped perfectly, but as higher sustained loads the injectors were overheating and shutting down.
Still whilst trying to find this elusive problem I replaced the fuel tank, pump, fpr, etc, so have a few good spares now!!
It was only by chance I found a note I'd written about Roosie owing me 4 resistors that I remembered, and he still hasn't paid for them, tight git that he is!!
