HX35 and injector size for performance and towing??
Hi guys. I'll be running about 30-32 psi max out of my HX35. I'd like to select an injector that will run cool and not tax the HX while towing. Could you please give me suggestions on which injector would be the best for that application? So far I've narrowed it down to RV275s (from a cost perspective), either DDP 60s or 75s (would love to go 100s but I think they'll be to hot), or Mach 1.6s.
I'd be happy to get around 325 RWHP but would be willing to settle for less as long as I don't have to limit myself on towing or EGTs getting out of hand.
Thanks in advance, Mike.

I have about the same setup as your talkin about in the 99 with RV 275's and stock turbo and you can see my HP in the signature. I pull a little heavy in this truck and EGT's are controllable with these injectors as long as I turn the Comp down or off. For the most part no matter what turbo your runnin if it will work for daily driving it will not work for pullin heavy with a controller box turned up. If will control that kind of heat it would be way to laggy for daily driving purposes.

Thanks Uncle Bubba. So with DDPs, I presume the power would be a little more and the EGTs would be slightly less (mileage would be a little more??) but not enough to make a difference in the big scheme of things, right? If that's the case, I'll just go with the RV275s and call it good for a while.

DDP's are better and that's a fact. But are they enough better to justify more then twice the price as I recall. If your into competition and need everything your truck can make, maybe so. For us normal folks usin our trucks as Daily Drivers and pullen trailers, not even close to worth it according to my wallet.

Yeah, I hear ya. I was thinking if the RVs give a 1-2mpg increase and run a bit higher EGTs than stock but the DDPs give a proven increase in mpgs over the RVs plus lower EGTs, then yea - I might go with them.. I just want all I can eek out of my engine efficiently without a box. But the determining factor, for me at least, will be to find out how much more mpgs and less EGTs the DDPs actually give over RVs.

Good to know on the EGTs, thanks.
yea, I'm trying to put myself in the position of having around 275-325 RWHP but more importantly lots of torque. Once I have the injectors and run them for a while, during that time I'll do a VB and TC (I don't really drive it hard enough to justify a full rebuild on a pretty nice shifting trans at this point). Then I'll be ready for the Adrenaline and some type of turbo
