    they say so because they have a better spray pattern or somthing.
    come to think of it when I pulled off the manifold an seen the f%ckin dodgy setup
    in the VP i was quite suprised at how ancient it is.

    The injectors just blow fuel down a big grubby hole.

    Direct injection would have been the common sense choice, but i am guessing that holden was too
    lame to do anything like that.

    makes me wonder what kind of car I am driving.


    BTW. why ask the question if you already have em...can't handle the suspense?
    cheers

    stock injectors are 200cc/min and the blue tops are 237cc/min
    i only like to do things once so i was hopeing some one on here has done it before
    beside i have a custom twin throlte body manifold, so i was think along the lines of
    my air need more fuel?

    prob will notice a bit more go, but I think you will find that you might have to tweak the memcal abit as the bigger injectors will cause it to run a bit on the rich side

    With going bigger injectors, the memcal will need a tweak.

    Little bit bigger and it will run rich. Alot bigger and it won't run at all, just gets way too much fuel (my current problem)

    Its not going to go any faster if it doesn't need bigger injectors.

    if you fit them the car will be slower as it will be running rich badly.
    you will need to get the memcal altered to suit them.
    it wont make any more power using bigger injectors.

    there is absolutely no reason why you would need injectors twice the size of the original just for a twin throttle body. if his memcal isnt tunedfor these injectors, it would foul up the spark plugs the instant the engine starts
