Default 7.3 Injector suggestions.

I have a 2001 F250 with stage 3 intake, Garrett turbo, Edge Juice with CTS gauge and a 4" exhaust at 180K miles. I am running a 6" lift and recently lost about 3-4 miles per gallon. I am thinking that my original injectors are running toward the end of there life span. I would like to get my empty mileage back up and have some better performance. What size injector would everyone suggest and the best place to buy them. Thank you

Do you have a 38R turbo or a Garrett turbo? Just trying to gauge where you are at, the factory turbo on these trucks is a Garrett.

Dont do injectors thinking you will gain any milage, I would look over the truck first and make sure you dont have a fuel supply issue or a high pressure oil issue.

Otherwise I love the AC injectors in my wifes excursion. They will require custom tuning to run due to the single shot nature of them.

I do have the 38R turbo. What kind of pressure should I be looking at for both the fuel and high pressure oil??

Fuel pressure should be between 50-75psi...

HPO will vary, need to compare duty cycle to psi when driving to know whats going on...
