2.2 High Perf. Injectors?

[bubaroo]

I'm looking for some info on the injectors used in the '90 2.2 Legacy Wagon and also would like to know if there are any good performance mods or swaps that I can do to boost power.I'm relatively new to wrenching on Soobs but I'm learning fast thanks to you guys.

"'90 Legacy wagon 2.2L"

"'82 AMC Eagle 4-dr 4wd sedan 4L"

I think first you should be asking yourself, why do you need performance injectors.

 

Unless you have a turbo, there's really no need to get higher flowing injectors....especially since the stock ECU isn't tuned for them.

 

You can get your stock ones balanced & blue-printed with improve spray pattern and even out the flow characteristics between them www.rceng.com has a good rep....they did the ones I have in my car.

 

BTW....do you have a MT or AT. Depending on the trans setup....you will have different injector types.

Thanks for saving me from that one Legacy.I'm pretty new to these cars and I'm just trying some things and now maybe I'll get me an air box from the bone yard and hack it up and see what I get. I'll let you know what happens.I got my exhaust valve in the head yesterday and I'm going to put my engine together this morning and see how it runs.Oh yeah.Has anyone ever had to get at their fuel relay?They buried that sucker good under the drivers side dash.I'd like to do some harm to the engineer that came up with that one.

I am running 550s in my car with a mid boost turbo. You can go even higher. With a stock engine changing the injectors out to a larger one would allow more fuel per cycle creating a rich run condition and poor mileage and performance. For the sort of money the injector cost, you could re-cam, and get a better intake, and a free flowing muffler.
