you won't need bigger injectors until you go over approx 230bhp. Also you can't just fit them and drive away, you will suffer bore wash and generally rubbish running as the map will need adjusting to suit. But when you do need them, Calibra C20LET yellows or for big power Saab reds  :wink:

Mine ran at 100% duty cycle at 229bhp so they were knocked back slightly. Others have had more power from them, it's probably down to complimentary mods

yep fair point mate. Just bear in mind the rods in the 1.8T don't like more than approx 300lb/ft. The K03S at that sort of power has a big spike of torque lol

Who did you get to sonic wash the injectors, Dave? 

I could do with a set being done and calibrated...

My old man works at what used to be Kenwoods up Golden Hill Fort.

They have a massive heated wash bath in there, then i just bought a rebuild kit off Ebay (£10) no calibrating i'm afraid  :sad:
