How does the fuel system work out? I know you guys just add the 2 additional injectors, but how is the reliability on that? Instead of just replacing the stock fuel system?
Since you brought up SRT 4's, their stage 3 kit fully replaces the stock fuel injectors, fuel rail, and fuel pump.
It also costs about the same. Not trying to point fingers, but they seem to be getting more for their money, with somewhat same performance. (stage 1 SDS vs their stage 3 turbo kit.)
Mostly just asking about the reliability and stuff of adding 2 injectors vs upgrading the stockers, I don't even know what the stockers are capable of."
The stock injectors are map-able to about 3psi then as boost comes up we pulse the supplementals in. When we do our initial testing we monitor exhaust temps on each cylinder to make sure the intake manifold equally distributes the extra fuel properly. In this case it does so beautifully. Reliability has been 100% so far, we've been supplying this set up for 3 years and its proven to be the most user friendly keeping
all things in consideration:
- Power
- Cold start
- In traffic performance
- Gas mileage
- Engine longevity
- Tuning
- Ease of installation
- Probability of things going wrong
We've been in the SRT4 world for about three years now, we have a RIPP Turbo kit coming out for that in 2008.
The Stage 3
"R" produces
310whp on pump gas and
360whp on race gas. We've seen it on the DYNO at least 20 times. If you add a good waste gate to it in creeps up to 380ish! But remember that car comes with Force induction and 225whp stock. As an N/A car you guys are "supposed" to spend more. The example was just an exercise in performance per dollar is comparison to what we see. We've installed headers, air filter and ECU tuned a new ZO6 and it made 549whp... but thats $70-80k BRAND new lol.

Does this seem legit? Anyone know anything about additional injectors being reliable and stuff?/
