Reply to "Low oil pressure"

My calculations say for my current tune I need 96 lb injectors for a higher BSFC required by a boosted motor. I am running 10 PSI and I am guessing about 1000HP at the motor. My fuel pressure is set to a poor 28 PSI which kills my atomization but it nets me a corrected injector size of 128lb which is small enough for the motor to run decently in the low power range. I eventually plan to up the boost to 18psi which will require a bit more fuel and probably net close to 1200 HP on the motor. Considering the lack of injector sizes above 96 lb/hr the 160's were the only choice. I guess I could have got a custom set from a company like RC but I would rather sacrifice a little idle quality than pay 1600 bucks for a set of injectors.

My ecu supports staged injectors but at this point it would be way too difficult to modify my existing setup. I just dont have the patience or money to do it all over again. I dont have my full build posted anywhere so here goes.

That about does it. I know my current transaxle frame setup cant handle the power but I plan to build a full blown race car in the future (distant future)that will be able to handle whatever I throw at it. I also wanted a motor that would not be at full load in the Silver State.
