i was looking at gettin the 5x0.012 injectors from SDX. i was hoping to get some feedback on these if anyone out there has them. is there a noticable gain in power? fuel mileage? how much do they smoke? (not really interested in alot of smoke) ect. thanks

 

i love mine, it was a great upgrade and with a little additional timing my truck runs great, smoke wise its pretty much how u have your pump set up, i can make them smoke but prefer not to, there is no haze at idel, but with a turbo upgrade i could prob use the extra fuel more efficiently, over all great company to work with and a relatively noticeable power increase with the addition of the right mods.

 

good to hear. they seem to have a reasonable price for their injectors compared to alot of companies ive talked to the past couple days. what would you advise to set the timing to with out it being harmful to my truck? i still have a stock transmission and torque converter

 

i absolutely love mine too. i have my timing at 16.5*. its not gonna be the timing that hurts ur tranny. that extra fuel is what will kill it

 

hey im looking at getting a set of sdx injectors as well but cant decide on which ones to get dose anyone know what size the stock injectors are? also any thought on 5 or 7 hole injectors ?

 

it depends on what your wantin to do with the truck stock are 5x.010 with a 145 degree spray angle an i would go with sdx thare rely good injectors

 

im wanting to keep the stock turbo on the truck it is my daily driver that i want to play with a bit. i was looking at the 5x12 and the 7x10 sdx. would the 7x10 be ok with a hx35 with a banks quick spool turbo housing and wastegate

 

yes the 5x.010 is stock with the 5 hole, the 7 hole design in theroy should atomize fuel better then the 5 hole, but i have the 5x.012s 90hp stage 2 370 145* pretty much. i like them, as for timing 16.5 is as high as i would safely go with out worries about studs and jeopardizing reliability. after studs and rings your pocket book is the limit

also if you have to stock tranny i wouldnt even consider the injectors until u have either a converter/valve body a auto, or a clutch for the 5speed imo. you can smoke you stock slippermatic with the stock plate full forward. with that extra fuel it wont last

 

thanks what would be a comparable 7 hole to the 7x12. I'm planning on doing the trans soon I just sold my 24v and got this one so I'm still shopping around to see what I want.

 

I have never personally used SDX injectors but I have heard nothing but great things about them and there injectors.
