Thread: 2004 Cavalier 2.2 Turbo with Nitrious

    So do you or do you not have a turbo on your car right now?

    If you do have a turbo on your car, and you have stock injectors, stock fuel pump then you are wasting your time. The stock injectors are not going to get you anywhere with boost.

    You are going to need larger injectors for boots.

    Your injector duty cycle is going to determine that, but not likely.

    Stock injectors are close to be maxed out in stock form.

    You increase them by replacing them with larger injectors.

    Ok so turbo is on only boosting 1 to 2 pounds something is wrong with my set up. I cant boost it any more. Either waste gate aint opening and closing, boost leak which i kinda skimmed through, Injectors, my manifold something. I feel a power difference but not a lot. But here are the tunes and logs.

    Injectors will not limit boost.

    Truly until you get bigger injectors and intercooler you shouldn't be building boost.

    Yes, 60lb injectors work perfect on a 2.0 lsj with 25psi so I think those would be the biggest for you. 42's are the stg 2 lsj size and people run them to 20 psi on the 2.0 so if your only going to 8-12 psi the 42's would provide the fuel at wot and have better idle quality.

    42's would be ok to 8-10 psi. If it was me I would go with 60's because it leaves room.

    Ok and just to ask for sure its the injectors thats not letting me boost right? I had the turbo connected at one shop adjusted my afr, and it still didnt work. So i took my car to another shop so they could re do the turbo install. The mechanic there keeps suggesting that it wouldnt be the injectors that the turbo is exhaust driven and that the wastegate controls the boost

    Injectors will not stop it from creating boost.
    However, without proper tune and injectors going into boost will cause engine failure.
