Since u have swapped tje injectors to bigger ones, did u adjust the AirFlowMeter or replaced it with a bigger one to compensate for the extra fuel?
I use the Malpassi BTR and the spring in the AFM to adjust the fuel, 3,2bar fuelpressure and 5 clicks on the spring in the AFM is the current setting and it works fine!
hey. nice setup. any idea how much power your getting out of this? you changed the injectors for bigger ones, what cars use the same fitting as the waterboxer? cheers al

Thanks!
I would guess that i have about 140-145hp now, with a bit more boost perhaps i can get 150-160hp.
I have injectors från a volvo, i don´t think that you can fint bigger hosemounted ones så I designed and manifactured new custom billet fuelrails so that i can use any borch injectors.
Some pics:
As a bonus , my homemade catchtank with SAAB Valeo "intank" fuelpump:
Since i´m on a tight budget i even made the couplings myself!
cool, nice idea on the fuel rails. wanna sell em?might ave to see if i can find a machine shop to make me some. first gotta strip n re build engine so got bit of time haha. al.

(i have 2 WBX turbo engines my self)
That sounds fun, are you bringing any of your turbomachines there? I´we seen your cars on your webbsite, the look ten times more wellbuilt than mine, but i guess that they did cost more than 500euros to build and wheren´t built in two month

Sell them? no i think that they are needed on my engine
I guess that you can by custom fuelrails at a speedshop, not too expensive. But you will need to modify the manifolds by welding on some tubes and machine them for the injectors to fit into.
There havn't been any larger pjojects on the car lately so i took time to paint the floor in my garage whith oil and petrolresistant light gray paint, it turned out pretty nice:
hahaha, that looks a sweet place to play, i'd put a pic up of my garage, but way to dirty to show up whats in there. i'm working outside at mo cus run out of space.

(or any garage tbh !) lol
Wouldn't it be a bit time consuming to drive to sweden everytime you want to work on your car
Now the gearbox finaly gave up, so this weekend i'm going to do a IRS conversion using a 1303s-75 as a donor
Addendum to Newtons first law:
zero vehicles on jackstands, square gets a fresh 090 and 1911, cabby gets a blower.
EZ3.6 Vanagon after that.(mounted, needs everything finished) then Creamsicle.
yepp, it´s my brothers. It has a 1600cc "kent" engine whith dual webers and drysump oilsystem. In a strait line it's no match for the buggy but it handles corners about 15times better! I hope that my new IRS suspension vill even that out a bit!
