Default anyone running the Bosch 160lb injectors?

I think I need to do something different to push this engine harder, and I am leaning towards running E85. Who is running these injectors, and what is your opinion of them?

in my personal experience/opinion, if you are going to be using injectors larger than 1000cc, spend the extra money and get a set of Injector Dynamics. they come with accurate data for all their injectors, and have very good low pulewidth control, so your idle quality doesnt suffer. your tuner will thank you.

I was really trying to avoid 2K on injectors. I do my own tuning, so I dont mind tinkering to get everything perfect.

i completely understand that. however, understand that injector tables are not tables that can be logged and tweaked. the data for those tables are only available from the manufacturers IF they even measure for it. i dont think bosch does.

im not trying to say you're doing it wrong, or making a bad descion, i just want you to have all the information before you spend your hard earned cash.

Go with the FIC 2000 cc injectors. My 1000s are at upper 70s% IDC on E85 at 12 psi.

I'm running the new Bosch 127 lb Injectors from fic. The owner of FIC said these injectors are the new standard and recommends them over the id2000's because the id's are a retooled injector where the Bosch ones come from the factory as there size. 127lb injectors I'm running g are good for 900-950hp on e85. Pm me if you need more detail.

Thanks for all the input. I think the 127's might be a little small, but they seem like a great injector. I am leaning more towards the FIC 2000's I will know for sure in a little bit.

Well... maybe I wil go with the 127's. For some reason I thought you had bigger injectors. Are you running E85?
