fuel injectors?
Tuesday, July 26, 2005 7:15 PM
i was wanting to know know what the stock size for the fuel injectors are and if I put 32lbs injectors in do I need to upgrade other thing or can I get a hp gain from just that ?

( i have a cold air and cat back borla exhaust )

the stock injectors on the ecotec are pretty damn good. until you start running lean, you don't need any new ones. if you went boosted, or did a HEAVILY modified n/a engine, then you would need injectors.

if you go forced induction, you are good on stock internals up to about 6 psi. it all depends on what total power you intend to make, to figure out what size injectors you will want if you replace them.

stock is like 14 or 16 lb/hr. good to id say 200HP with some tuning.
i have 32lb/hr (330cc's) in my car but im running 8 pounds of boost everyday and 10-12PSI at the track



I used to race cars, now I race myself.

stock should be more than that....

2200;s are 17lbs per hour, and i know the 2.4;s and 2.2 ecotec should have more than that right?

also depends on the psi you test em at i believe.

also an intake and exhaust... you really have no need at all to worry about injectors...

not even close really. basic boltons the car can support small stuff.
