According to Todd K...Bigger injectors will be more safe on 1.3bar and higher RPM.

add $740 for injectors w/fuel rails and be happy!

That's a good question. My car makes 507 whp on flashed K24's and an exhaust (Europipe). Are 24/18's really worth the additional investment? What is the HP increase from a K24 to 24/18's? 20-30 hp?

You guys really have to stop comparing these HP numbers...dyno numbers mean squat in and of themselves. 18G's make power sooner and carry the power farther out. No comparison. Look at the 60-130's. Go for a ride in a 18G car. You will have your answer.

^^Very true! The 18g's don't necessarialy produce huge HP numbers, but they do give tons of torque. The torque curve on these turbos is long and flat, and they don't run out of steam towards the top of the RPM band.

I had a stg 4 GIAC Turbo before the 24/18g GT2, let me tell you the power of the 24/18 is so much more violent.

i just got my K24/18g setup back from Tony at EPL and i had the same question when i was thinking about getting 18g's. on paper it didnt seem like much of a gain, but now the car is CRAZY FAST !!! it comes on earlier and holds boost longer.

all i can say is dont pay attention to the dyno sheets.

Absolutely, If your car pulls harder and accelerates faster that my Gt2 with your extra weight, I'm sold. Go on the mid-Atlantic forum, we meet all the time for coffee, I'd love to go for a ride.
