injectors

[diablo007]

will injectors from a 2.0 ecotec fit a x16el? if they do are they hard to change?

[Adam]

Why?

They wont give more power.....

Just flood your engine, you need to improve the inlet etc to use the extra fuel your putting in.

[diablo007]

right, ive been told they make a big improvement to the cars performance! ive been told before to change the whole inlet manifold but i dont remember what i was told to replace it with. any ideas?

[Stuart]

a mantzel type inlet for the 1.6 16v engine...

who ever told you larger flowing injectors alone would improve power needs a punch in the face ;)

[diablo007]

any idea what engine number id need to look for to get the right manifold?

[Adam]

They dont come on the engine as std.
A Mantzel inlet is an aftermarket top inlet, and gets rid of the x16xe's miles if air intake.

[diablo007]

its a 98 car, i dont want to be spendin a pile of money in it. ill just take a better standard manifold off another car....if there is one like

[Stuart]

nope, no std inlet that is better.

and fit the injectors by all means, just dont come crying when you spin a bearing/munch the bores...
