Let's say I'm upgrading my UK 550cc low impedance side feed injectors for some 650cc's

 

Is there any benefit to keeping with low impedance injectors using my resistor pack OR what's stopping me removing the resistor pack and using high impedance injectors ?

 

OR are high impedance injectors slower to open the bigger the flow rates are, compared with the low impedance ones that take extra juice to open ?

sort of on topic (and not wanting to start a whole new thread) - what type of injectors does the vvti 2jz-gte take? I know they're top feed... but does anyone have a picture of one? 1 hole? 2 hole? impedance?

Terry would be the one to answer this, but I'll have a stab at it ;)

The stock ecu (regardless of whether UK or j-spec) uses drivers that only suit high imp injectors, so to use low imp ones a resistor pack is needed. Low imp injectors perform better (open faster) in theory but you would need an after market to ECU to take advantage of this. If using the stock ecu and resistor pack there would be no advantage over high imp ones.

well, not really
(and not wanting to start a whole new thread)
Why not? It's free you know ;)

Hi Imp, Side Feed, same as non-vvti TT Supras
I know they're top feed
No, they're side feed
... but does anyone have a picture of one? 1 hole? 2 hole?
:shrug:
impedance?
High impedance.

Peter,

 

Lo-Imp injectors tand to run cooler and react faster....obviously this still relies on the quality of the parts, but from memory Ian's 720cc Lo-Imp injectors could be made to open for less time than my hi-imp 650's.....2ms or something like that...it might not sound like much but the better the injectors react the more accurately you can map etc.

 

I would not remove the resistor pack. I would buy RC-Engineering 720's Lo-Imp. (Side Feed for the stock rail - Top Feed for an HKS/Titan/PHR). However you can remove it if the ECU your fitting has a Lo-imp driver built in.

 

Jake's right about all the stuff in response to Draven. VVTi = Hi-Imp, Side feed, 440cc.

Thanks Jake/Alex.

 

So the extra power/draw that is needed for the low imp injectors and allows them to open/close quicker means nothing unless you have adjustable control of them (After Market ECU) - that makes sense.

 

I'm I right in thinking that the resistor pack controls the peak and hold of the current ?

I know it's an old thread but was wondering what Pete decided to do. After reading the article Terry posted, it seems like low impedance can be better if an after market ECU is used, but alot more expensive. Are there 650 side feed low impedance injectors available?
