A favor for a fellow Mazda owner

Hey all,

I'm in the process of researching a proper turbo setup for a 2.5 KLD V6 [93+ ProbeGT/MX-6/626]. It seems like the block is strong, good for over 11psi, with reports of over 14psi [not bad for cast rods and pistons ]. Stock knock sensor, forged crank, and oil tap on the block make turboing it a bit easier. The first limitation is fuel. Stock 170-220cc/min [varies by year, and nobody knows for sure what they are ] are only good to about 7-8psi max, before you start getting ridiculous fuel pressures with an FMU and the spray pattern goes bad [usually above 80psi].

At any rate, I was informed that secondary injectors from an FD3S will drop in. Now going from six 220cc/min injectors to 850cc/min is not really a good idea for a sub 3 litre piston engine, unless you like idling at 3000RPM. However, searching around FD sites, I've discovered that you guys swap in the 850 secondaries to replace the stock 550 primaries. I think that with good fuel management tuning, one could get the idle below 2000RPM with 550cc/min. However, I have a few questions:

1) Are the 550cc/min injectors and 850cc/min injectors low impedance?

2) Are the 550cc/min's the same exterior dimentions as the 850's?

3) Does anyone have a picture of either injector for me to verify the basic shape and assess possible fitment before shelling out $$ for six injectors?

4) What is the minimum pressure you could run with the 550's or 850's?

5) Why are FD's so sexy?


Thanks guys,

So, nobody has any pics or info about this?

Note: I saw the R1RX7 tonite at shands garage. Sweet ride! I didn't catch your name, but I was the guy with the Pink MX-3.

You might be right. I think it's b/c they're so curvy and low. They look so damn fast, I once received a speeding ticket sitting in a parking lot :p
