how do i tell if i got aftermarket fuel injectors or stock VLT injectors? anyone can explain to me how i can check? maybe colour of the injector?

VLT injectors are brown in colour. NA ones more of a pink Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

i want difference in VLT injectors and say like bosch 036 injectors i ment

The part #. 036's are light greeny - blue.

You guys know what 036's are worth?

I paid $160 AUD each. I have a set for sale......PM me if you are keen.

what other alternatives to genuine vlt injectors are there? i'm sorta on a tight budget for my build atm so yeah :/

bmw injectors are the same i think e23, e28, the part no. ends in 115 there bosch excatlt the same as the list them in the nissan parts book.

what flow difference does 036 injectors have to standard VLT injectors and how hard are they to install???????? and can 036 injectors run up to 600hp motor? as thats what my plane is by the end of the year

036's flow 380cc, you could run 70 PSI base pressure and squeeze 550FWHP maybe....... std injectors are around 275cc from memory. 600HP, hope you have lots of money... Later Brent Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yeh by end of year hopefully have forgies setup in the car and stage 3 cam rather than stage one with a autronic computer etc

i got a calais turbo and im replacing my injectors and im getting ones from PetroJect 120 AUD each and been told they will hold up to a fair bit of hp but to be honest my calais is running much just cooler exhaust 15PSI boost etc stock ecu so im guess these injectors should be alright and also if i went to 036 injectors which are expensive as mind u i would have to get computer re mapped or whatever yer??? 8)

What bosch injectors did the vk efi engine come with They are yellow in color Thanks

Why dont u just go to a european wreckers n get the injectors out of n old merc. They run the 036s in them n apparently u can get a set of 6 for bout $300. Check out Zoom mag a few issues back,its also in there n a volvo also runs injectors that r hose tail n flow the same amount. N if u know people u could get them all cleaned n flowed for next to nothing. Alot cheaper than $160each which is $960!! N like was said b4, up the base psi to bout 70 n u will hav enuf for bout 300rwkw easy.

yer tru good work there TroyVk may try that idea cheerz

You can usually get away with a 10 - 15% increase in fuel before ECU wont be able to get into "closed loop" and you can do that (+10 to 15%) easier and cheaper with an adustable fuel pressure reg. Cheers Brent

thanxs brent will check up on that :mrgreen:

You can also go Bosh 024's. These were taken over by the 036's and there is only 2cc's less. They came out in some old Volvo's and you can pick them up for about $30 + another $35 for cleaning. Aslo a cheaper alternative :roll:

As long as it's remembered an ECU upgrade is essential in most case's when aftermarket injector's are in

You can get the stock ecu to run the 036s but nly just n it cost big $ to remap it to run them so best bet is to go aftermarket so u can do all your timing n everything n also get bigger injectors later if needed.
