I want to fit cam gears, but my tuner tells me that my gtr has almost maxed out the standard injectors, how? she only has a humble 208awkw?

If that's the case, will a fuel reg fix it? Which one, does it have to be adjustable?

Is using a reg a bandaid fix for maxed out injectors? How?

R33 gtr, power fc, pod filters and 14.5psi

That doesn't sound.right.. my standard ones are at 270kw.and they still have a bit to give... either get yr injecters checked out or get a better tuner buddy

Check your base fuel pressure first to see if it is where it should be; I am not 100% what it is from standard so don't want to give you a bum steer. There should be much more duty left at that power.

well it adds up if your saying your injectors are near maxing out running on 14.5psi but you should be making far more than 208awkw at that boost

im running that exact same boost on -7 turbos (stock size), car is making 260-270awkw and my stock injectors are at 90% tops

his dyno must be just reading really low, f**k.. 60-70kw lower? thats redicilous

Its actually not far off the mark for a car without cam gears dialed in, and of course dependant on other mods. Remember every car/engine is different and the stock engines are getting on a bit now.

How about comparing apples with apples here so as not to confuse the thread starter? Hard to compare a car with bigger turbos and ~270awkw to one with standard turbos and no cam gears. As you stated, there are plenty of dynos that read lower than others.

Back to the original query though, I would be checking your fuel pressure and most likely replacing your fuel pump as others have suggested.

Agree most likely to be fuel pump dying, but don't forget to change the filter and check the vacuum/boost signal to the regulator.

Remember when checking the voltage at the fuel pump that the control module does not supply the full 14v at idle. IIRC its about 9v. I dont know when it switches to full power tho.

He said standard gtr injectors max out on his dyno at 220awkw

I will say his dyno is prety shy, my car on another dyno (IS motoring) was reading 27 kw more

So that would take my car to 230awkw or so. Maybe the injectors would max at that hp?

Duty cycle reached 88%

Everyone dyno is "shy" mate, it's the new black.

Either way, at that power level 88% duty means there is something wrong.

Although - you said they were maxed, yet now its 88%, that is not maxed.

88% is safetly maxed

Anyway, I got my money back from the tuner today :D

It's booked in at crd tommorow..

We'll see what they say

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
