What size s300 ya got?

FWIW, I think bigger injector lines are a waste with the VE. The $$$ they cost would be better spent elsewhere.

Lots of people having good luck with the 14mm's. Gotta build the rest of the truck to support it. If you want to go 14mm you should contact KTA over on 1stgen.org. he might have one of his laid around, the roken tek is ok but KTAs is ****.

Idk the specs exactly, I wanna say it's a 52mm compressor wheel. It's a PDR super S300... I realize the injector lines might be a waste but if I do make it to the 14mm head rotor I think they'd be useful. I was going to do the medium route, as they warn the VE won't idle with the max line size... I've spent more money on dumber things ... I'm running out of mods to do without having to tear the engine apart. The 14mm head is sounding pretty good... Before Long I'll have to change turbo's or have to run compounds...

Actually I need an aftercooler or work on an intercooler... I know I'm just pumping a bunch of hot air at 38 psi. Or... Water meth. Hmmmm

KTA has said he has no 14mm heads left, and has no plans of having any made any time soon.
best guy to get a 14mm ve built - Competition Diesel.Com - Bringing The BEST Together
I've asked KTA, Russin, Schied, and Giles about the 14mm head and all of them said some last and some don't, even with the proper fuel system. If you do decide to build a 14mm VE, you are going to need larger injectors...something in the neighborhood of 6x.016s.

Yeah, I figured the added fuel to the small injectors would increase injection pressure to the point it'd trash the pump, I have a small set of DDP injectors but no where near 5x.016's

Sorry... 6x.016's... I know that's some custom injector work, ka-ching!
