BTC Member 8 Member For: 13y 6m Posted 27/10/12 10:36 AM Share Posted 27/10/12 10:36 AM LookIng to get some 42lb stock injectors from an fg f6 for the xr6t fg as an upgrade.Where's the best place to get them new or 2nd hand? Are they Bosch ? Do they come up often 2nd handOthers have said 60lb etc but when you call some tuners they seem fussy on what type. I see there is a thread on injectors but didn't seem to mention much about the 42lb. How much do you need to spend? I've seen 60lb for about 350 but they seem to be full length.I want straight drop in.Also It seems a big variance in tune prices.I see bullet performance send a performance tune with xcal for 795. I guess it is still a good idea to check on the dyno.Thinking of 1. swapping injectors (guess I would need the xcal loaded with a tune if I swap injectors myself in order to drive to dyno)2, put a venom hi flow cat pipe3. Get a tune Hoping that will yield close to 300rwkw?It seems some get 280rwkw with just a tune only. Is that rare I.e some of the comments here seem to indicate 250rwkw is close to limit of stock injectorsThanks all 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously.. Baby it..If it was me I'd go the F6 injectors if I scored a set second hand.. But if I was going new I'd ask my tuner what injectors to get..Also avoid mail out tunes.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTC Member 8 Member For: 13y 6m Posted 27/10/12 10:58 AM Author Share Posted 27/10/12 10:58 AM Thanks guys! Will most of the other gear hold up you think? I.e. would like to keep stock intercooler piping, valve springs and exhaust (besides cat). What is stock cat good to?Will have to look up 52lb injectors also if cant find f6 fg injectors..

Mine busted when stock.. Look into a coolerworx kit on eBay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTC Member 8 Member For: 13y 6m Posted 27/10/12 11:34 AM Author Share Posted 27/10/12 11:34 AM Ok. So I take it these kits are same size piping just better quality.So if after the tune down the track the stock ones blow you just replace with the coolworx or similar and there is no need for retune?Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy to be corrected.. But if it was me I'd be wanting it not to blow after the tune and sort the problem before hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
