    What mods have you done so far? What makes you want bigger injectors? (assuming vr6injectors are bigger)

        I know this is an 'old post', from June, but...

        Being new to the BMW DME stuff, but not new to performance builds, I'd "assume" you can't just throw bigger injectors at the car and the DME be okay with them.. ??

        If so, man, I've been missing out! lol

        I think the VR6 injectors are around 395cc/min @ 3 bar, and high Impedence..

        M42 injectors are around 214cc/min at 43.7psi (3 bar)

        that's a helluva lot more fuel..

          M42 injectors are 192cc and the engine runs extremely lean at WOT past 3k. I switched to 230cc injectors.
