Tell me which. Your opinions?
 
1994 12 valve
160 pump

Ported head and manifold

61mm Super HX40/35

3" downpipe, straight (and short) exhaust

19* timing




4x .012 300's (which I cant really seem to find, but have heard good things about)

or 5x .012's (which are everywhere)

Not looking for massive power, but I am looking for clean burn and MPGs.
I do TONS of driving during the summer and I'm down to 25 mpg on my stock 160 injectors, which have 200,000 miles on them now...


Also, SAC or VCO? I understand the mechanical/physical differences between them, but not what that equates to in MPGs...


Thanks guys.

I would go with the 5x.012's sac may cost more but a much better result also would go with a better turbo than what you have listed

As of right now I'm limited to the turbo I'm running. I cannot fit a 4" downpipe.

However I am planning on doing a compound setup down the road....

may want to go bigger on the injector than

not really interested in going big. Interested in staying clean and getting good Mileage. If it were up to me I'd run a nice clean set of 215 SAC's I think...


But the question is. 4 hole with higher pop off, or 5 x.012s

94 12valve 04-24-2013 03:20 PM

you can still stay clean and get good MPG with bigger injectors thats all in your tuning ... but 5 hole is the better choice

Ok.

I also just found the RV370s from DAP for $299. They are authentic Bosch. They have the 5x.012 VCO nozzles at 145 spray pattern, and are not the 155 marines. I think for that price I cant refuse....?

94 12valve 04-24-2013 08:21 PM

your sure there 5 hole? but thats a pretty good price if they are gonna assume there stock pop and lift could be low on fuel if your going with a good twin set up

Fox 04-24-2013 10:03 PM

I called them on the phone, and they said it was indeed a 5 hole x .012 vac design at 145*. Said it was a 12 valve RV design.


Eitherway, when I do twins, I wont be contemplating running these. BUt thats another year or so down the road at least. I'm tackling my transmission first.
