hi there im looking at buying some 440cc injectors from a version 4 to go into my classic version 2 as an upgrade, anyone no if this is an upgrade worth going for? and what else I would need to fit them as I understand I don't think they are a direct fit? any advice or help would be great fully received...thanks!!

You'll need a remap on a standalone ecu or ESL daughter board if upgrading injectors...big money!, if your looking for more than 300 bhp then you'll need the 440's they will do up to approx 360/370bhp all depends..

can you remap the standard ecu??

atilley

No mate, you need a standalone ecu like alot of modified scoobys are running now, or if you have an early classic v1 or v2 you can get a chip installed or an ESL Daughterboard which can be mapped like a standalone ecu.

You do realise that fitting these alone won't net you more power?

scooby_simonb

yes I understand that, i currently have the engine out the car, its having a td05 20g turbo, fmic, walbro fuel pump, z4 ecu, stainless headers,different throttle body and hopefully the 440cc injectors. anyone see a problem with this combination?cheers

Yep big problem. You can't run that set up with a z4 ecu bud. You will need esl board fitted or an apexi ecu an commander. You can also get alcatec or simtek for early cars as well I'm sure. Needs an aftermarket ecu to be mapped correctly for that sort of set up for sure.

Mate if your going to be running a 20G dont put in the 440's, put in the later pink 550 sti injectors! this way it will leave you head room and if you decide you want more power you will be able to run it! And yes as said above an aftermarket stand alone ECU is a MUST then when all put together get the car mapped and hopefully it will be running a dream

iv just fitted some 440cc injectors in my v2 bought them from a chap at work along with a www.scoobyecu.co.uk daughterboard payed 75quid for the lot think i had a bargain tbh

atilley

You just got 440 injectors and a daughterboard for £75?? LOL complete steal!!!! lucky on that one mate!

zo0op

Dont think he new what he was selling and tbh i didnt realy know what i was buying i only realy wwanted the injectors and then get esl fitted but going to see how this set up goes first

scooby_simonb

ok so after a re think I wont be fitting that turbo,will I still not be able to run the z4 ecu?
if not then whats the best to go for?

zo0op

Are you running a td04 now? And why the rethink on the td05 mate?

scooby_simonb

well I believe mine is already a tdo5 16g? correct me if I am wrong and have been informed that going for the larger 20g could be more hassle than it s worth.
