You need sewer piping and 4 pumps to supply the fuel for them. Plus who needs bigger than a 1680?If you don't have enough fuel theres something wrong with you car.

i'm asking about the bigger injectors because i want to have enough fuel for 600whp with a T88 in the future. i have a PFC, and i wanted to know what are the limits for the secondaries. i know that the biggest you can run for the primaries is 1000cc.

my other reason to ask is because i don't want to use a rebic with extra injectors.

so far the highest i saw with the PFC is 2x1000cc and 2x1600cc and thats 5300cc. i think i might need more fuel for about 600whp.

1000 x 2 and 1680 x 2 will get you about 630bhp worth of fuel at 80% duty cycle.



On a side note, where do you plan on using 600rwhp?

I think 1600 - 1680 injectors are the biggest commercially available. Methanol guys use 8 - 12 or more of these, if there were bigger ones available I'm sure they would use them. Keep in mind for most cars that 550 cc injectors are HUGE
