BB code injectors with turbo pump?

I have fairly new BB code Delphi injectors on my N/A 88F350 IDI. Stock (probably original) IP with about 170,000km. I am getting ready to install an 093 turbo. Here is my question. I also have the stock IP from the 94 IDIT truck that i got all the 093 parts from. I think it has about the same mileage. Can I use that turbo IP with my newish BB code injectors, or would I need to get the G codes or whichever are the "right" ones? Thanks.

I personally don't think the code of the injector makes a huge difference as long as the the injector is working properly.

Ok thanks for the input. It sounds like either pump will work. So really whichever has the most lift left in it is what i will go with.

The G codes were introduced for the turbo engine as optimized over the E code N/A injectors. BB is a more modern design than both.

General thought is that the BBs are fine; you're not missing out on any performance enhancement over the Gs.

Here's the statement in the Ford manual:

All of it is BS.

The Stanadyne injectors are all but Identical aside from the letter code on the side.

I have been through many injectors, and both brands have their benefits/downfalls...

The Stanadynes are a more quality injector, with better tolerances... The Delphi/CAV/lucas sticks have a better, more consistant spray pattern, but have quality issues out of the box.

If you have newer BB codes, they will work just fine with the Turbo IP/093 setup... As good if not better than the factory stanadynes... I do recommend that somebody go through them though, The stock pop pressures work well with stock fuel flow rates, but when you turn up the fuel, they can lead to a smokey'er setup. The key to this is to bump the stock pop pressures to bring the injection duration back into normal range.
