SC ENGINE: 51.6 lbs/hr @ 55.1 PSI / 14.5 Ohms based on 380 kPA = 3.8 bars = 55.1 PSI
But, this leads me to wonder if the NA engine would benefit from an injector swap...

Lots of tuning potential there!

I guess the challenge in actually making that HP number is lowering the BSFC of the engine. With intercooling and alcohol/water injection, perhaps this potential could be reached.

Re: Fuel Injectors / Rail
so about the na injectors... anyone figure out what part number is needed for the 22- 24 lb injectors is and where to get them? exhaust and intake have been upgraded on my car already and im thinking with the schrick cams and a good tune to benefit all the parts as a whole i might be satisfied with the car in stock form without nos until the v8 conversion is done. thanks for any info! oh and what are the mb 320 injectors rated at, if i could go to the dealer and pick up a set that would have a better flow i would. thanks again

Re: Fuel Injectors / Rail
The Bosch MB injectors are listed with Stan Weiss, I gave him the information for the Crossfire / SLK / CLK... Most all are identical Delphi connectors and are plug-n-play... The mathmatics of fuel delivery requirments for this engine are 14lb injectors (100% Duty Cycle)... we run 17lb injectors (80% Duty Cycle) Larger injectors will not produce more HP by themselves, they will just run at a lower duty cycle %....
Your best bet is to remove your current injectors and have them cleaned, flow tested and matched (optimized) by RC Engineering... Unless you are doing stage 3 mods....

Re: Fuel Injectors / Rail
I know your a fan of RC engineering HDDP, but I have seen thier set-up and heard about how innacurate it is from other customers, and you don't want to know about the genius operating the equipment. One guy went in with one injector got it tested, then came back another day to double check the quality, and man was it way off on the retest like 20% off
You can do the same if not better job testing your own fuel injectors at home, just make up a y-harness that feeds signal to the cars injector and plug the other output of the harness to the injector your testing, run the car at the rpm you desire and then measure your extra injector that's being fed signal into a graduate. trust me you can do this yourself cheaper than paying RC engineering.

And MAX, I doubt you ever had your injectors flow tested anywhere...

from what I see in the PDF file and looking at thier machine it's a graduated cylinder measurement system, not very accurate. it's as good as rcengineering. There is only one guy that I know of who can do fuel injectors properly and get measurements withing .10% and he does not use the archaic method of spraying into a cylinder.

This sounds really lame, but I can't discuss how he does it because he's the only guy in the USA that can test to such fine acuracy. Giving away his secrets would be really F***ed up on my part. And isn't ethical. he did the checking on RCfuel injections quality control, and we where shocked at how pathetic they are at giving accurate numers.

Well I don't see another way of measuring fuel passed - counting molecules, use acid and titrate to determine the volume or just use an accurate measuring cylinder, if the cylinder is of a small enough diameter the accuracy should be quite high.
Don't know much about accuracy in injectors but what is the accuracy are you talking about? If it's say +/-0.5%, thats +/- 3.5cc per minute at full flow - how accurate and the injectors be set up?
Got me thinking anyway.
Anyway Merry Christmass all.
