I just put on a turbo kit on my 01 2200 motor. Im trying to find any upgrades I can do to the motor externally and internally that I can. I have found a few sites, but was just wondering what you guys could show me. Im unsure about my injectors, I want to upgrade them to just be safe right now and want the upgrade to be so I can use them when I upgrade my turbo and the motor. Just give me some thoughts on what injectors to use and where I can find them. Any info will help guys. Thanks guys.

Go to rceng.com! Thats where I got my 650cc for my '00 turbo 2.2 cavi. They were around $500 with the pigtails, but you get what you pay for, and these injectors will get noticed when they are on your rail.
IF your not built pick up a set of ford brown tops any other will be an over kill.
Get hpt, get injectors off ebay still rc but only 355 shipped,
DRIVE HARD OR DONT DRIVE AT ALL!!!
im using dsm 450cc injectors out of my friends 4g63
hondas are like tampons.....every pu$$y needs one...
mildly built 99' ln2, eagle h-beam rods, wiseco forged alum. pistons, cusco oil catch, t3/t4 super 60 garret, tial 40 mm wastegate, hp tuners, prothane mount inserts, 2.5" exhaust.
how did you wire in the injectors?

I didnt get them yet. Im getting a set of ford brown top injectors for right now. Just to run till I pull the motor and build it, then im going to upgrade them.

so wait... you boosted... before you built? sounds completely backwards to me, especially if you're on the stock fuel setup.
JBO Stickers! Get yours today!
yea i boosted before I built. The turbo set up was the right price so I jumped on it.

me and a friend redone the whole wiring harness, eliminating the egr plug-in and re-using the plugs from the talon that the injectors were from. We had to fabricate, "rig" alot of it though for right now just until the rest of the turbo set-up is installed. By the way what size wastegate are you running??

dude sounds like you enjoy taking the car apart a thousand times. Totally ass backwards and i completely understand getting a good deal but damn dude i would have never spent the time putting the turbo kit on if my intentions were to pull the motor. But then again i have been working on a turbo kit for my car for around 2 years and just when i think i am ready i decide i dont like something and it gets changed and redone. LOL
when your engine decides to grenade on you because you're not tuned, and throws a hefty chunk of piston ring-land at the turbine on your turbo spinning many many many thousands of revolutions per minute, causing you to have to buy a new turbo... was it worth it then?
just wondering....

thats some funny @!#$ but true
i have the ebay 38mm works Fin great

id keep an eye on that eBay waste gate... the waste gate is one of the most important parts of the turbo set up, that thing fails and spikes ur boost up, you could potentially say good bye to your motor.... i wouldn't trust it as far as i could throw it.
as far as injectors i have been using cobalt ss stockers (36#) but im upgrading to the ss stage 2 injectors (42#).... all you have to do is wire in the clips slightly modify the fuel rail to fit the shorter injector.
you can certainly boost before you build, just watch how much boost you throw at it without having forged internals and be aware there is no saying on whats safe for a stock motor.
Yes I know you can boost before you build. Im not gonna go crankin the boost because I know this. And the car isn't a daily driver so It wont get drivin much before I do build the motor.

yea i was using a ebay 38mm on my old ln2 before it got totaled but i never had a prob with it. i was only using a 8lb spring though but on the new build i felt like it was time to go with a better upgrade and bought a tial just in case. but in the case of the injectors when i meant rewiring them to work, I meant i had to tune them to run harder do to our cars not having a resistor box unlike the dsm or the honda for that matter.

our stock injectors are only 19#, i was maxing them when i had intake/exhaust and hptuned. they definitely need to be changed on a boosted set up.
