Injectors

[Alistair E]

I've been doing some searching on ebay for RS2 injectors with no joy so far. However, I have seen a lot of other Bosch injectors, some with lime-green tops rated at 440cc. Does anyone know if these are suitable?
I also tried looking for a Bosch website which would give the specs for their injectors, again no joy. Does anyone have a link they can post?
I'm looking at going for an RS2 e/manifold, Bosch 044 pump, RS2 intercooler and RS2 or Garrett GT2871R turbo.

Thanks in advance

Garrett GT2871R turbo.

Have a look HERE as it seems the 3071 may be a better choice

Yes Mark, I saw that thread but I was under the impression that the surging problems were with the 3071 not the 2871. Also, I thought the 2871 would spool slightly quicker. I'm not looking to go beyond 400hp or big torque as I don't intend, at the moment (although I may change my mind), to uprate the rods.
I know the 3071 can be mapped to reduce the rod bending torque but I liked the idea of the quicker spool up.
I've just bought a copy of Maximum Boost which along with Pauls Turbology paper should help me understand a bit more.

There's a revised version of Turbology in the works. It will give more step by step guidance on the various calculations needed to work thru compressor maps and also gives guidance on fuel system sizing with the relevant calculations. It will be supplemented by the ever popular Turbology Calculator spreadsheet that does all the boring number crunching. Crowing glory is ESTIMATED power and torque graphs for a given engine with desired boost profile and it tells you what size injectors are needed for the application.

Give it a week or two
