Injector markings?

I’m sending an injector out to be flow tested because I’m unsure if the PO installed larger flow ones and I need to update some tunes. Do these markings mean anything or are they standard?

Those markings are stock. Theres no real way to know for sure without flow testing them since they aren't clearly marked. I went through this last fall.

That’s what I was thinking about the markings too. I’ll send it in for a test.

Who did you send your injector to have flow tested?

Just curious. Why not sent all 8 out and get them balanced?

Right now I just want to update my tunes as I don’t care for the transmission shift points. Since I need to know the injector size to do that I thought sending one would be the easiest quickest way.

I didn't send mine out for testing as they were at the end of their life with 190k miles. I got them rebuilt into hybrid 205/30s by Rosewood.

I just sent a single one to Rosewood today. Hopefully they can determine the flow.

Ok, I'm game for an educational lesson.

How does the injector's flow capability tie to the transmission's shift algorithms?

My Hydra tuner also controls the transmission torque converter lock up, etc. From what I understand, a tuner needs to know the fuel rate of the injectors (among other things) to write me new tunes that can change a variety of things including transmission control.

Jim from Rosewood called me today. He said I have 130cc/ stock nozzle injectors. From what I can find online, it appears Beans or Swamps probably did them as both called them a "tranny saver" injector. I can see larger injectors in my near future..

Those may be a bit much! I'm not sure yet. I've just started reading into it. I don't know if hybrids are the way to go or just do a 160cc / x? nozzle.
