Help needed, injector problem
« on: 05 April 2013, 22:35 »
Hi all after some help please, I've got a AGU and have seen many people have fitted Saab red injectors, well I have also purchased Saab reds and after having them given the all clear I decided to fit them tonight into my manifold. They fitted fine in the fuel rail, but when I came to fit it into my manifold I came across a problem, they are to big, so I removed the large allen key holder situated in the manifold and re-tried again, with no joy. Basically what I would like to know is, what is the trick? Is there something else that I need to buy for them to fit? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Firstly are they gonna be mapped in?

Yes it will be having a custom map, as I'm fitting a lot of uprated parts, I.e. 4bar fpr, front mount intercooler, uprated fuel pump, larger maf.

I've gone for Saab reds as I've seen on here a fair few people have done it and I'm hoping for more power and torque, so thought this would be the best option. If you have any other ideas be greatly appreciated lol.

Thought Saab reds were for AUM only?
Normally people go for Calibra yellows, but again not sure if these are AUM only
ARZ K03s, Oettinger Side Skirts, R32 front, Carbon stage 2, Forge 007p (yellow spring), Forge Actuator (yellow spring), Pipercross panel filter with DSG parts, N249 and N112 deleted, SAI deleted, Carbon canister deleted, Rear wiper deleted, Long Life turbo back custom exhaust with 200 cell sports cat, VR6/G60 clutch kit, Creation Motorsport TIP, Catch can, 'Wellycooler', K04 charge pipe, S3 ported inlet manifold - looks pretty standard on the outside though :)

Calibra yellows are the ones for agu but still you don't to be fitting them Without a map.
You need to get the guys who are doing your map to fit them and map it straight away

I'm fitting a few mods then its getting trailed to the mapping place as I don't want to cause any damage. I will try uploading pics of the injectors I've got now.
