Ok, let’s switch gears to some massive turbos like this! This sucker’s got a 427 c.i. BEI LSX engine sporting 2500hp. It’s got a Waterman fuel pump, which does 20 gallons per minute (that’s 4500 LPH!) through eight 225lb/hr primary injectors (that’s 2362cc/min) and 550 lb/hr (and that’ 5775 cc./min!) secondary injectors. That’s what you need when you run alcohol. This car’s best run is a whopping 6.36 at 223 mph!
To put that number into perspective, $2M Bugatti Veyron Super Sport (the faster one rated at 1200bhp), hits around 107mph in that amount of time.

You need that much fuel when you’re running a pair of nasty-big Garrett GTX55-88s at full bore.

GB fuel injector service equipment was on site showing how they clean and test fuel injectors. Here they’re pressurizing air through the injector into a fluid so you can see the spray pattern. It was actually rather impressive, since quite a bit of pressure was needed to fill what appeared to be a hydro-locked container.


Firing away here is FIC's new 1650 cc/min high-impedance injector, which is the perfect size for six-cylinder cars like the Supra and GTR seeking around 900whp on gasoline or 700whp on ethanol.

do we know why BW gave up on this quick spool valve?
