Default 2003 Z06 Injector Replacement

Looking to possibly replace the fuel injectors on my 2003 Z06. What are potential vendors and brands?

Thanks

Tom

WOW! Lots of questions need to be answered!!

Why are you replacing them??

Bigger or same flow rate??

Engine mod that you have??

Goals for HP/Tq now & Future?

Do you know that you have to reprogram/tune the PCM with any change in injector flow rates?

IF,,, you purchase different aftermarket injectors. MAKE SURE that they come with SPEC SHEETS that define all of their parameters so your tuner can PROPERLY tune the injectors in the PCM injector fuel flow tables.

Unless you have SIGNIFICANT engine mods that allow the engine air flow/fuel flow to max out the flow rates of the OEM injectors OR your OEM injectors are damaged/clogged,, Adding different injectors WILL NOT add ANY additional HP/Tq.
