• 500cc per minute is approximately equal to 49lbs per hour which is equal to approximately 100hp.
• lbs/hour = cc per minute / 10.5
• lbs per hour = HP / 2.04
• cc per minute = lbs per hour x 10.5
• cc per minute = HP x 5
• HP = cc per minute / 5
• HP = lbs per hour x 2.04

 

I love it when you talk dirty to me...

 

you don't need new injectors with the mods in your sig

 

heh. I know that...but im going to gt40p's with 1.7rrs and cobra intake...can I make it with the stockers? Im also going back with a 75 shot and a dyno tune. sooo looking at around 350 to 375hp...hopefully

 

you could always upgrade.
injectors don't add power. they allow it. you will need to get a tune if you upgrade injectors though.

 

ya...but I figured I would just be close to the max. Think ill be alright?

 

I'd wait for the 5.0 guys to answer..
I'm more of a 4.6 guy

 

ahh but you're like god

 

not even close but thanks

 

Well i think the title says it all...what exactly is the most hp the stock 19 pounders can handle? Im upgrading my fuel pump to a 190lph but was just wondering about the injectors.

The formula is:

Maximum HP = (Injector rating x duty cycle x no. of injectors)/Brake specific fuel consumption

Assuming a duty cycle of 85% or 0.85, and a BSFC of 0.50, we get the following:

Maximum HP = (19 x 0.85 x 8)/0.50 = 258hp

That's only a rough estimate but it gives you an idea. How's that for dirty talking?

 

heh thanks...Means im gonna need 24 pounders. Damn. But i know there is a guy running around on here with tw heads and the stock injectors. I could prolly get by on the stockers if I didnt add the nitrous right away. Then when I did add the spray just upgrade the fuel too.

 

right around 300 crank hp is the max for 19#ers. at 350 to 375, 24's will be perfect.
