Yes, I also still have the 5bar in the car. I also edited my post that you just quoted, could you answer those questions for me please.

Thanks, Tim

I have 18G's, exhaust, 58lb inj, 5 bar and run 1.3 on pump. My car doesn't want any more boost on pump, but it runs really well at 1.3 on pump. Thats what I ran my 6.62 on. I actually ran a 6.61 last night on an almost perfectly flat road. I've never run fuel...yet. Pretty soon. Your car made awesome power. Mine made 547hp/580tq (awd) on Tony's dyno here last week when we added the 5bar. Mike

Awesome Tim. Maybe one day you'll shift as quick as me. But I digress. If you install 60lb injectors, you MUST go back to the 3.8 bar fpr. Good luck.

Thanks buddy!! Still doesn't feel quite as good as your car did when I rode in it, but I have not run as much boost as you yet either though. I will NEVER shift as quick as you .
I think the injectors that I have are the 58lb versions, and Tony assures me that the 5bar will be a great setup with these injectors. I think you have different injectors than me, and they don't like the higher fuel pressure like my 58's do. Maybe Tony will chime in on that one.

That is a truism...Our 58lb injectors are rated for 8bar, 60lb Siemens are only good for 6bar. I think he's posted that somewhere before. Higher pressure makes for better atomization. My car DOES run better with the 58lb and 5 bar. Picked up 20+ whp too.
