There's the 52lb at 3bar which is the most common EV14 as sold by FPR

http://www.bosch-motorsport.de/pdf/components/injection_valves/EV_14.pdf

0 280 158 123 is the 52lb IIRC

0 280 158 116 is the EV14 design that has a spray and bent angle most similar to the BA/BF stock injector. Has a 33Lb @ 3bar flow

Crikey Chris, the G6 sounds like an animal!! Nice work :-)

I bought some of these 60lb Bosch EV14's on ebay through Tuff Car parts.

Part No. is 0 280 158 117

Not listed here but there seem to be a lot of variations and applications.

They need an ev1 adapter to work in FG but apparantly they are the right length and don't require spacing or fuel rail mods.

I am yet to fit them as the few tuners in Sydney I approached at the time, had little experiencing tuning them. This was in early July.

Hopefully this has changed. If so, does anyone recommend a tuner that has experience with these injectors and has been getting good results.

Post a pic of the injectors head. Any decent tuner should be able to tune them no worries....it's actually a dead simple process. It may take an extra hour if they have never used them before, but its not rocket science. Just go to one of the big name tuners and they will sort it out. If they fuss over it, tell them they're donkey's and go elsewhere.

Hate to break it to ya but ive got the tuff car parts ev14s 60lb installed on the FG. Heard good stuff about the ev14s so I decided to spend abit more. This is possibily the worst mistake ive done. Not saying the injectors are bad, they seem to work quite well but you will need it tuned PROPERLY. Take this advice from me as I have to go back to the workshop no less than 5-6 times within two weeks to get the car just to run normally ie no stalling, shuddering etc. The car still doesnt feel 100% im just waiting for jim from tunehouse to come back and retune the car which was taken to another workshop in the start.

Im not sure if you're referring to Tunehouse or another tune shop....but regardless, if the car and injectors are mechanically sound, then they're obviously not going about the scaling process the right way. A tuner should basically be able to pick up an injector, assess it's design, do some quick homework and start tuning / datalogging in the driveway until the fuelling error is eliminated. Different branded injectors aren't all designed the same and therefore they perform differently to each other, sometimes quite differently...so the way an injector behaves has to be precisely modelled in the software. Everyting is in the software to do just that. But yeah if a tuner just straps the car to the dyno and starts punching numbers based on what the afr readings are then you're asking for issues!

Not tunehouse fault shoulda went them in the first place just saying going to tunehouse for a retune. IH8TOADS you are right pretty much everytime I went back it was just punch in some numbers in to the flasher and hope for the best as there are "other" jobs to be completed. Lesson learnt ive spent $6k to get a car running worse than stock everytime I come to a stop it will literally drop dead or shudder badly before rpm jumps up. Like dips then up again. Mind you it wasnt any random workshop either in sydney and lets leave it at that. After the 5th time it seems to be fixed but it just doesnt feel right the car is indicating rich and using alot of fuel. I think the tune has been richened and idle rpm raised to 700 as well but that's just not the right way to fix the issue. So when october comes ill be heading to tunehouse for a retune and see what power it can make.

Very sorry to hear you still haven't got this issue sorted. It must be very frustrating at the moment but long term I am confident the car will go very hard and reliably.
