wow crazy. how much power you going for cause youll need 850's to break 600hp. the 550 injectors will power out around 550hp

yeah and if i go for more then 450 i might go with meth injection which would require less fuel from the injectors since the meth would replace a large portion of that fuel.

I'm not worried about the rotors. They can handle it. Its usually the apex seals that go. Never heard anyone have issues with the rotor. My engine was just build anyway so thats too much trouble to go through.

I'll have to invest in a twin power soon so.

I have 550/1600 running with an apexi pfc in mine.Was gonna run 850/1600 but again was afraid of the whole idling situation and was told by my tuner to leave it 550 as the idling would cause trouble so I have a brand new rail and injectors just looking at me asking why they aren't in the fd?? .I'm in the bedding in stage at the moment so not too concerned about it but would like to make as close to 500hp as possible as a street car with a street port and the usual single turbo mods!Darkphantom and dudeownsanrx7 seem to have the same setup as I have and i'm delighted to have gotten some new info regards our setup.Could you post up some pics of your t-78 setup guys?

as far as your quote tailwhipper if he cant tune/idle the car he wont recommend you putting 850cc injectors. Unless you have another guy there that can tune the car?

JUST ASK AROUND. almost all of the guys with big hp #'s run s4 87-88 rotors. there a little heavier but they have more meat on them. It happened to mines. Ill take a picture for you to see what happened. but just imagined on the top of the side where the sparkplugs hit the rotor jut above it theres another dent in the rotor!


were replacing mines as they speak!
