Been speaking to someone and he has recommended this to me from Trust. He said The 5th inj kit allows you to run hi boost safely and spit flames and he reckons the kit is about £700. Is it worth it? Spoke to someone else who isnt really into tuning but he reckoned i would have other problems with the engine saying he doesnt reckon the gearbox coupd cope.

Anyone had one fitted? Any ideas?

What else has been done to the car? Do you *need* more fuel at the moment?

As Dowser said. My preference would be to get a multiple of the number of cylinders of equal sized injectors working at a sensible pressure with a 15% IDC margin. A 5th injector can cause differences in AFR between cylinders, and can also cause excessive fuel to coat the inlet manifold walls. In addition, just turning up the boost with the right amount of fuel and hoping the ignition is correct is optimistic and dangerous.

Money, my understanding is that if you go that route you should also get an aftermarket ECU that can control it as part of the overall system.

At the moment nothing really has been done on my import. It should be getting a full decat, HKS dump valve and Blitz air filter hopefully by the weekend. Dad works for Subaru to so it should be treated to some other treats.

I will be upgrading to a better ECU to and many other things will be done to the car which im in talks with to other suppliers. But i didnt know what this 5th injector kit was? What mods do you need to run this kit comfortably then?

Also what sort of gains should you get out of this kit?
