Putting injector question another way : Delphi 38 lb, or Bosch 39 lb injectors ?
Both are available flow matched, at a very reasonable price.
Unlike the usual 42lb EV1, the 39lb Bosch are EV6 type.
But I'm assuming it doesnt matter and either could substitute for RS2 / 37 lb injectors, and even run on RS2 ECU, with a tweak of (an adjustable) fuel pressure regulator.
And leave more headroom for higher hp on bigger (than RS2) turbo.
What am I missing ?

You can still run the RS2 injectors with a bigger turbo for more horsies.
Hap said he was using the RS2's for a long time into his modding before he went to the larger 42 pounders he's running now, IIRC.
You won't lean out your mix or stress your duty cycle until well into the 400whp arena if you have the proper tuning.
Cheers,

Thanks - I'm really just looking at the 38 or 39 since they can be had cheaply with Flow matching ..
and doing the math seems to work out ok<ul><li><a href="http://www.rceng.com/technical.htm">http://www.rceng.com/technical.htm</a</li></ul>
