Saturday, August 11, 2001 - 12:30 pm I think the 36 lb/hr Bosch 'blue top' injectors would be ideal for your combination. They seem to act a lot like a stock Bosch injector.
Many people have had difficulties getting the 'red stripes' to behave well at idle. Though you may be able to cure your ills with a different chip. Have you tried a Jay Carter chip?
Sunday, August 12, 2001 - 06:40 am I agree with Scott. From what I've experienced the 'original' "blue-tops" (not the so-called '868's) characterics are so close to the stock injector that the chip hackers have no trouble making them work great. A very sweet injector.
