Why in the world ANYONE would consider these injectors is beyond me. There are several 1300+ HP Lt4's that use the STOCK injectors including the world's fastest C7 Z06. This is LINGENFLTER price gouging at it's finest (LOL). There will no doubt be much more affordable big injector solutions available relatively soon if that is your preferred route. To their credit, there were the first to offer a bigger injector/DI pump solution but in my opinion the price you will pay for that solution is completely unreasonable.

I have the eforce kit on my ls7 and tuner states im leaning out with injectors at 100%. We put the oem pulley back on for now until I can sort this out.
Man you're in a better spot though because you have port injection. There are TONS of injector options for you on that LS7 at a very reasonable price.

Supply vs. demand folks. They're the first aftermarket option for LT1/4 folks and they're charging accordingly. Can't blame them.

Though I'd probably have developed something bigger if it were up to me. These don't seem enough bigger than the LT4 ones for the $$ IMO

But if you need them you need them..

Yeah price is a bit steep.. DI injectors for other platforms are way more in the ballpark price wise of "regular" injector prices

We'll see if someone else releases another product to help bring prices down..

Before I spent 6k on the pump and injectors I would probably just add a port injection system with some ID injectors and be done... help keep the intake valves clean and only be used when needed (boost)

cool!! If i would have kept my centri I would have done this (if I was going for maximum power)
its honeslty pretty easy to add a rail setup and controller, just have to dial In the fuel between the controllers is all but Not too difficult

While adding the components isn't a really big deal, tuning the 2 systems to work un-noticed isn't that easy. Transition is everything and a customer that just spent $90k on the car and then another $30k to make it have 1000whp wants a car that drives like it did when he left the lot.

We have modified LT1 injectors that flow 25% more than stock.
http://store.katechengines.com/high-...tors-p544.aspx

Next we will move on the LT4 injectors to see how much more we can get out of those.

Wouldn't those modified LT1(20cc/s) just be LT4(25cc/s) injectors?

Correct, however we were developing them for use on our NA 427 LT1. We found on the engine dyno that the modified LT1 injectors made more power than the LT4 injectors.

We aren't doing it on an exchange basis. We are only doing these in batches with new injectors.
