Smart asss :roflmbo:

i actually calculated these to be good for 450rwkw at one point... based on the fact that 42's run out at about 330rwkw, 60's should run out 450rwkw (caluclated 470rwkw.. but i'm being realistic here..)

I dont think anybody has pushed these injectors upto the power level when they start noticing the AFR's starting to lean from commanded.. Edited by Headsex

Here is some maths for calculating injector flow rates ect.

Given the equation:

IFR (lbs/hr) = (HP * BSFC) / (NI * 0.8)

where:
IFR = Injector flow rate
HP = Engine horsepower
BSFC = Brake Specific fuel consumption (pounds of fuel per hour / brake horsepower)
NI = number of injectors

The BSFC is determined from engine dyno tests and ranges from 0.4-0.6 for petrol engines therefore a BSFC of 0.5 is safe to assume for our purposes.

Now the injector is rated at 60lbs/hr @ 3 bar fuel pressure or 83lbs/hr @ 4 bar (the XR6T runs 4bar), the BSFC is 0.5, and the number of injectors to be 6, we are then left with an equation we can transpose to find engine horsepower at 100% duty cycle.

83 = (HP x 0.5) / (6 * 0.8)
83 = (HP x 0.5) / (4.8)
398.4 = HP x 0.5
796.8 = HP
597.6kw

taking into account that there will be about 25% drivetrain loss that brings us to a total of 448.2rwkw, so you were pretty close Danny :laughing: Edited by Fatsex

so its safe to say with a good tuner with the right mods will see 400rwkw easy.
in that case put me down for a set Edited by AIM-300

In the above equation (post #27) I actually have the value of the fuel pressure at 4 bar, in the calculation I made in this post here (which I did 3 months ago) my value for the injector flow rate at 4 bar incorrect, and the fact that edit will only let you command 80% duty is what I have been told, I am not 100% certain on this.
