TRM Chip & Injector Question

[gazellebeigem3]

24# are overkill on an m50, regardless of the s50 cams and 540 MAF. :crazy:

I have them on my s52 because I had to get a new chip anyway, and I found them cheap. On certain tunes, especially my TMS tune, they run pig rich up top and actually hurt performance. Osh cleaned that up on the dyno, but he said they didn't add any more power then stock s52 ones.

It's nice to have them since I'm putting my reground cams and tune in, in the next month, but whatever. :-D

finally the voice of reason! dont waste your time/money on 24lb injectors. Theyre overkill on anything but a cam'd s52

Well unfortunately I have already over-killed my fuel system and TRM chip. So I guess this is a lesson for future M50 swappers!

I've had no issue's with turner motorsport at all. OT Chris are you going with sunbelt regrinds?

The reasoning behind the 24 pounders, as I recall it, was that since I was getting rid of mine at the time, and since his original ones came on a very dirty engine, I would sell him mine for cheap. So when he bought the tune, he'd just add the 24# option.

Somewhere along the lines, though, he got a free set of the skinny Bosch ones, so I just sold mine off. Oh well.



And San, you're looking into the HP figures relying on stock HP output. If I started out with 240hp stock, then how do you explain the extra 40hp I made with stock cams and pulleys? ;)

And according to TRM aren't even necessary with Schricks.

It's amazing that no one seems to understand that bigger injectors are only necessary once your maxing out your current ones.

its all about the duty cycles baby

Like Mazur said, they were given to me. What am I going to do, deny free injectors because I could spend money trying to find pink tops thats flow 225.75cc/min or free ones that flow 252cc/min. Wow what a HUGE difference!

I guess I lose at the game of modifying cars!

^ get down with your bad self

so...dyno yet?

GL or hitting ur goal but honestly my m50 with s50 cams 540 maf (useless mod BTW) 19lb injectors made 189rwhp. i put in some nice pinktops and i really didnt feel and power increase... i think anything above a 19lbs is too much fuel/ too little displacement for a m50, even if the injector pulse has been shortened...

[WADE30]

Well I guess all I can hope for is 200whp if that. But I get it dynoed this week so we will see! ;)

Let me know when you go I want to see and same if you still want help with making a heat shield.

Osh's dyno was out of calibration by atleast 12%. We all put down way less power then we really are. I'm sure you're over 200whp.

Naw, decided I wanted the wider powerband of the Schrick sport cams instead. Cams on hold for now, I have the spare set, but have not sent them to be reground yet.

Interested in your results. I am planning on doing s50 cams this winter.
