I've used extra injectors back 15 years ago. It may be pre-emptive to discuss this, but I believe that although you may lose some idle quality with big injectors, going with 6 extra injectors you'll have very little tuning/mapping capability with 6 extra injectors. That will probably be the subject of another thread in 3 months time, when we review how these cars are tuned. Usually with big horsepower, via big cams, turbos etc there are usually tradeoffs.How about I try the big injectors, you try the extra 6 injectors, and we'll compare results.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey brian I bet you any amount of money that the 6 correctly mapped aux injectors on the T engine will be emission legal, smoother to drive, and more fuel efficient than 6 very large injectors controlled by a stand alone computer.

PeterAPS Time will tell Peter.I have fond recollection of considered advice from APS that T5 gearboxes had no problems whatever after being thrashed in APS testing. I now know of 8 gearboxes that have been replaced with T56's, and many of these run APS gear.Also I remember the derision from you after I reported that I put strengthened internals in my car. I now know of a number of APS cars that have blown engines.So let's just see what eventuates on this matter.You may be right, but then again....

Are they run on the same map as the main injectors?If so how can you fine tune them?Are they run on a seperate map?I was led to believe that the Unichip cannot run 2 mapsmacka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Z Member 378 Member For: 20y 11m 8d Posted 22/09/04 11:25 AM Share Posted 22/09/04 11:25 AM Interesting points bcl, though one wonders if ANY OEM or after-market tuner can offer ANY guarantees that driveline components may not break down. At the Sydney APS day earlier in 2004, I distinctly recall David Inall mentioning multiple times that long term reliability and longevity of driveline components is largely dependent on the type of driving style by the driver. Also, as you may recall this caveat came following advice about David's confidence in the T5.For example, even Ford gets testy about warranty if they suspect "hard" driving to be the cause of problems. So does anyone know of ANY OEM or after-market tuner that offers 100% guarantees of driveline components without such caveats? If so, please enlighten us. Safe and happy driving...Dr Z.

APS told me on the phone that they have a test car with 450rwkw with the stock t5 gear box I then find out that they have a mal wood gear box from mal wood himselfI have almost 360rwkw and I havnt driven the car hard at all and my gear box is deadSo I find it really hard to beleive that it depend on how you drive the t5 is a weak gear box that's why ford is changing to the 6 speed so quickly I have friends within ford that said them selve the xr6 turbos are breaking the t5 gear boxs with stock enginesno matter what way you go with the xr6 auto or manual you are going to break something , I think that's the only advantage Expensive Daewoo has over us there gear box's are much tuffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
