Ok so I bought a 38r turbo and was wondering what is the best injector size to match the turbo. I will be using rosewood for the injectors, was thinking of going with the hybrid injectors so I wouldent have to upgrade the HPOP, but if stage ones will be more than enough i'll just go that rout. I already have forged connecting rods so that shouldent be an issue. I am hoping to get in the naborhood of 400-450hp and around 800-900 ft/lbs.

Do you tow at all? I would check out swamps injectors, they are about the same price as hybrids for a set of their 200cc/30% honed nozzles that should put you in the neighborhood of 425-450 with good oil, and low enough egts to still pull decently heavy. Especially if you have an intercooler bigger than stock, they will tow really nice still. Also they will put out less smoke and a little bit less boost than hybrids will at 425-450whp so ive been told by swamps. That will keep your valvesprings happier, and everyone behind you lol :) Im gonna try them out as soon as I get the procharger on :)

haha ya if I have to spend the money for a H2E i'll eather build my own setup or upgrade to a newer engine. How do you like the 230cc injector? will the stack HPOP keep up with them and what nosels do you have thanks.

ya I do tow with it but am very good at keeping an eye on the EGT's. I'm going to go with rosewood for the cost I will build them with the kits he sells.

The kits still like 1500-1700 isnt it? The injectors from swamps are built at 2250 and come with a warrenty i think a year or maybe 2, and the honed nozzles you will see a ton better fuel mileage than most any other modified nozzle setup. Just my .02 cents, I get budget but in the long run they would better pay for themselves with more power and better economy. Also I have an adrenaline, I havent run bigger injectors yet But ive been told that this single pump will supply hybrids with 100% nozzles fine. It rocks with the stock sticks tho it really made a big difference!

Sounds like your on the right track tho, alot of people go with rosewood but I honestly think swamps know their stuff really well. They will make more power and also better economy than most any other injector. Ive talked to alot of different injector manufacturers in the last month or so trying to figure out which guys to give my money and out of the probably 20+ companies I talked to personally I honestly believe swamps impressed the most with thier knowledge, customer service and also the fact that they back every injector they build. They told me the exact specifics that the injector would flow and what pulse rate and pretty much everything I needed to know about every injector I looked at from them and from some other companies I mentioned.

my stock HPOP keeps up good have never popped a P1211 since i have had them. I popped it on the stock spitshots. the injectors are sweet just need a bit more turbo for em.
