Hey guys, I've got a r33 with an rb25det in it, following are the mods;

-splitfire coilpacks

-power fc

-FMIC

-3' turbo back exhaust

-Z32 afm

-570cc denso injectors

-walbro 255 fuel pump

-Hypergear ATR43SS-2 turbo waiting to be installed

-gizmo EBC

And probably a few more

Question is, im chasing about 270-280 with the new turbo and tune, however my tuner was saying the injectors might not be big enough and should upgrade a 460 fuel pump to mitigate the issue. Talked to a few other people and they said don't bother just upgrade injectors.

What does everyone reckon ? Upgrade fuel pump and keep and injectors and scrape by or just go bigger injectors, and if so, what size and brand ?

Thanks in advance for any help

The injectors are large enough. They will support over 300 rwkW. That is getting a bit close to the margin, so if you want some comfort then sure, upgrade. Your best bet would be Bosch EV14 based ones. Probably 1000cc would be the best choice. They'll be much better injectors than those nasty old school Denso ones anyway, so don't worry about them being too big.

The fuel pump will probably be fine. Too big a fuel pump causes unnecessary fuel heating - so it's not a free choice anyway.

Well this has just made the decision that much harder, tuner and mechanics saying go bigger. But thanks for the feed back guys

Well mine made 314AWKW with 550s and had plenty of room for more. Name the workshop that says you won't make 300 on 570's !! I reckon they will do 350 at least if not more.

However if you have money to burn stick some ID2000s in and you will not have to change them for a while.

570cc injectors at 80% duty cycle 1 bar of boost will make 324kw - ish on 98 , I recommend not going over 80% duty cycle, and more fuel is better than not enough. Your 255 fuel pump will be fine aswell. I wouldn't change anything.

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
