    All, bit of an open ended question but a bit of background. Our class does not permit the use of carbon fibre injectors...so we made our own from aluminium back in 2009. Worked very well but as ever, we want to improve and make the car faster :cool:

    My question, what in your opinions is the ideal injector design? this is for a methanol altered so vision is important, but power is key.

    We run a dmpe spacer so will be made to match this in terms of flow.

    If I couldn't run a carbon unit I'd go with a mag Veney / Gerardo unit
    If weight isn't an issue , I have seen some guys run pretty well with the Fowler condor ;)

    Thanks for replies guys but we don't want to buy one...

    We are going to make our own. But want to know the best design out there. The best and latest 'things to do'

    Hope makes sense ;)

    The best thing is to move the butterflies up and forward, allowing the air into the blower on a rounded ramp, match the opening to the blower a close as possible, especially in the rear

    It will most likely be something along the line of this -
