Hey people this is my first post on here.

Currently getting all the parts I need for my corsa turbo conversion and I was wondering if anyone knew good injectors to use? That's the only stumbling block I've come across, no matter how I word it on google it doesn't come up with the answer I'm looking for lol I just want better flow rate injectors that are a direct swap rather than adapting some to fit if that makes sense?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated

Surely some let injectors will do the job?
If its good enough for 1998cc should be plenty for a 1600

What power? 20xe will do 200bhp or maybe a touch more, rather than going for the 20let's

What BHP are you targeting?

If you are going to run megasquirt you will be able to run any injector (that will fit the fuel rail) with the correct driver circuit. I would say a minimum of 330cc injectors should give you ample headroom. Its not advisable to run the injectors at over 80% duty cycle (industry standard figure to avoid the injector becoming jammed open or shut)

How good is your maths? RC Fuel Injectors have a very good injector calculator but you need a good understanding of what you are trying to achieve and more importantly what your car's hardware is capable of http://www.rceng.com/technical.aspx?UserID=1672376&SessionID=cdaDZkc9tatFzJuuG1TQ

Yeah I just wanted to know what injectors would fit that would suitable, so injectors from a c20xe would fit and be fine? Well I'm not going for major power, say 150-160 atm then down the line ill probably spend more and make it to the magic 200 if poss on the X16XE
