Will BIGGER Injectors help?

KCCobra03 · 01-23-2005, 10:47 PM

I just bought some 24lbs. injectors off Ebay. Will it help? If so do I need to upgrade my MAF? I have C.A.I., Magnaflow CAT Back and a Accufab Throttle Bod on my car now. Just not real sure where to go here. Thanks.

What car are you going to use the 24s in? If its a older 5.0 you will have to match the injectors to the mass air flow sensor. I believe the stock injectors are good until 260 to 275hp. But its better to be safe on fuel.

yeah really...most people upgrade to 55 or 60lbs injectors, but that's only when they swap out the blower?

CRAP! I thought I had 19lbs injectors! *&#^@& Oh well I will just put them back on Ebay. I thought I had read Cobra's had 19's??? A learning curve here.
