question about injectors

[LHD_Kid]

Just a quick one...
I would assume that any kind of deviance from standard injectors on a 3B would incur the need of a remap...?
What about just changing from 3B to ABY injectors?
I understand the 3B ones flow more, but the ABY ones have a better spray pattern....
Is this an option?
Or would faulty injectors be better replaced like for like (even though in the future I would like to walk the RS2 route (if ever funds allow)
thoughts and opinions on this, as there have been a couple of other threads on injectors recently, just got me wondering....
cheers guys

3B works at 3Bar ABY at 4 bar so it's not a straight swap.

It may be possible the ECU ma be able to adjust the injector cycle enough to get lambda but I wouldn't just for the sake of ABY injectors.

Better off saving for better injectors when you need them i.e if you upgrade your turbo.

Chris, how do you know that they are faulty?

The engine will run too lean. Not a good idea.

Sorry, just seen this....
I don't know they are faulty, but I am running out if ideas, and am looking at possible options...
I have a thread running on a few problems, one of which is very bad starting... seems it is almost pointing to leaking injectors, so that, on startup when cold, or even when warm after it has sat for a little while it runs like s**t for a minute, then is fine...
Need to try and find the problem.......

Shame you're not in the UK at the moment as I could flow test and clean them for you
