I run 1150cc injectors, but these are Newage fitment. Not sure if injectors that big are available for side feed.

Bought them from

Also had my Turbo in inlet pipe from Andy... Ring him or email him... I'm sure he'll advise you after running through your spec

800cc's at standard fuel pressure will be close if not on the limit. I had to change from 800's when going over 500bhp, but that was at standard fuel pressure and the standard Spec C pump. Had I even ran with my current Bosch pump on standard fuel pressure I may of been ok.

I have 1000cc top feeds on my 97 type r but have a parallel rails that also converts to top feed injectors.

Running 530bhp with the injectors at about 75 - 80 % capacity. Had some 850cc Deatschwerks injectors on there before but maxed them out at 480 bhp.

Also using a bosch in-tank pump.

Mark Aigin at Lateral Performance can flow test the injectors to make sure they are up to the job....... why compromise ??

Just checked and they were also the 740cc injectors but they were not tested or mapped. Given the chance again I would go to Mark @ Lateral.

740's should be sufficient for 500, 850's will have room to spare (with the right fuel system). We flow test and match our injectors.

I ran 850s up to 600hp, so I would say you have a problem with your fuel system installation (ie power supply, restrictive fittings)
