Single shot is more efficient.
So it would be better to go with singles?

I am currently running 250/200 hybrids.

I have run in this truck stock AD's, Stage 2 Swamps, EIS Fubared 238/30 hybrids, GTS 238/80 Hybrids and these 250/200's...

Swamps is one of the best builders out there, Casserly is right there too...

what are 250-200's, 250cc-200%? What kind of hp are you running and what is the purpose of your truck, work, play, recreation?

250/200 are 250cc per 1000 shot hybrids with 200% over stock nozzles.

Hp... Before I blew the last motor with 238/80 I was at 470hp... That was with a smaller turbo.

Now it should be about 525-550, but who knows. I dont care anymore... 4 motors and 6 trannys and 2 rear ends and a bad economy will sap the giveafuk right out of you.

I drive it. It pulls trailers. It starts everymorning...

Someday I will have fun with them again.

I was just wondering why you were using a 200% nozzle, instead of say a 100% nozzle, why go with such a high %, how does it relate to the cc of fuel being released or hp or efficiency? And what does the "1000 shot" pertain to?

Injectors are rated on a stand per 1000 shots... So a 140cc stock AD flows 140cc for every 1000 times it fires.

A 250cc flows 250cc for every 1000 times it fires...

200% nozzle allows you to shorten the PW (Pulse Width) and makes a much crisper injection event per the HP asked. A 100% nozzle would take longer and would require more advanced timing or more retarded timing to inject the same amount of fuel.

I didn't want 200% nozzles when I order them. I ordered 100%... However I am glad I received the 200%.

Oh, ok, why are you glad you got the 200's?

Because of the reasons I stated above. Much crisper HP, better tuning with less timing.
