injectors

What's going on with the new edm injectors? Performance? Price?

I have a set of EDM Mach II that I am very happy with. The price was pretty high but I think they are worth it. No smoke at idle like PODs and more power then PWs. With my collar still on the pump and a Dodgezilla turbo I can not get to 1200 egt.

The only reason they're a little pricey now is because it's still a small operation, and nowhere near the manufacturing capabilities of Bosch.



I have a set of bigger-than-POD injectors comming soon.

THAT is a gross understatement, CGauthier. Chris has the bug really bad.



I have a set of EDMs that flow about like stock, supposedly. (though they were sitll juicier than stock) I gained about 1. 5 MPG overall, city driving with a 12 cm housing. I had a set of MACH1s, and they were just TOO DAMM hot with my pump settings (pegging the boost gauge in 4th with the 12 and stock injectors) and lack of intercooling. THey are pricey, but like CB said, they are still a small operation. THey are worth every penny, IMO, though I have no personal experience with the PODs, PWs, et al. I can still get some smoke at take off, but not near like before. EGTs dropped about 150 PEAK; cruise is still about the same. Cooldown is improved, and it takes longer to get hotter, all else equal. Got mine from Rip Rook, service is second to none. I just dont have the bucks to pony up for the exhaust system from him yet. Might do it if I get out there before 2006.

So, where all can these injectors be had?

 

[dpuckett]

Rip Rook of Source Automotive. TDR member Bob Wagner sells them, too. I am sure if you do some hunting and digging, you'll find someone who will sell you a set.

I had a set of 370's modified to fit a first gen fuel line they were ok for a while, but I still wanted more so I had them extrude honed stage 3. They have some serious holes in them. They flow alot of fuel. It does smoke don't get me wrong, but it is controllable. (somewhat)

Stomp, just out of curiousity, what sort of EGT's are you seeing with all that fuel??

What kind of boost #'s???

Well !!!!! Funny question with my h1c it would touch 1800 pretty easy with the Piers hx40 it will go any where from 1300 to 1600 with 45psi of boost. It really depends on elevation I think I have hit 1700 on a long pull/race. I was running at 40 pounds of boost for a while, but I wanted to see if 45 would help or hurt I think I need to put it on a dyno to see if it helped out for power and egts. I think it the same either way.

EGADS, Guys. I chicken out when the pyro reaches 1350. I figure if I'm 100deg into the red, I need to back out of it and bump the timing, or add air or something. Though right now, COOLING the air would be a big help.

You guys never cease to amaze me. Pastor, what's the hottest you've ever been? I remember reading about you hitting 1700 on a dyno, or somewhere closeby.
