What injectors for turbo set up
Hey All,
I am in the process of doing a twin turbo on my Z06. I am using twin Garrett Gen2 GTX2867R turbos. I am targeting around 600 HP and I think I will need 60 lbs injectors. What brand would you guys recommend? I have heard that the ID1050x are the way to go, but that seems like to much injector for my power goals. I would like to hear what other members thoughts are. Thanks in advance.

ID1050x or ID1300's would be fine. I wouldn't bother going smaller.
The old school thought of not getting any more injector than you need doesn't really apply anymore. As long as you have the correct injector characterization data (which is a whole lot more than just flow rate) then larger injectors can be just fine. ID supplies this info, so should be fine.
I was running ID1000's even on the original 93 only ~6 psi setup, now I'm up to E85 and 12-13psi and still using the same injectors. They ran better than the old 60# deka's that were in it in the very beginning.
I've tuned ID1700's on a stock engine (w/turbos) before. Idled fine.

60lbs will supports 600rwhp on pump just fine. You don't have to go bigger.

What all did you have to convert in order to run E85? Fuel lines? bigger pump? What engine management did you use?

Throw a flex fuel sensor in and wire to the ECM, factory ECM can make changes based on E content.
Need 25-30% more fuel, so whatever that means for you.
Not to say an aftermarket ECM can't do some pretty cool things, because they most certainly can.. but for a basic flex fuel setup you can just use the factory ECM.
