the big siemens injectors will flow enough fuel for over 500 hp and 40+psi of boost

edit, if he only wants around 400hp id go for 55lb ones

Easy to work out, look up the formula I posted on here a while ago, with the website addy where you just input the cc/lbs and details and hit enter does it for you.
What's wrong with greys ?, perfectly good and able IF mapped correctly, as my engine proves 0.97% CO, 137PPM GREYS T3/34 ported head and 200,000 miles on the engine, or is that bad ?

I wouldn't bother with 55Ib - go straight for 72 or 83Ib as mine were near maxed at 441bhp

4 * 86lb are good for about 600bhp depending on your BSFC

The 55 lbers will be good for 400 hp no probs and will do 450 hp with the right pump and pressure..
If you need a greys chip for your t34 engine give us a shout we can sort that for you..


cheers danny

300 and use it hard and they die fairly often, at 400 3rd gear is properly on borrowed time!

I rum Siemens 83lb or whatever and they are way to much for my 400bhp engine. I am running F88 management and the duty cycle is backed right off. I would go back to greys but the spray pattern is better on Siemens, I would have gone to 55lb but we mapped the engine on the 83lb and I have run out of time for an event im on this weekend. To get the AFR to anything nice on tickover they are just about injecting!!
