RE: PN for Mercedes injectors?

If you are running out of boost why not use a K26? You will not run out of
boost with a larger turbo?.....

  Gary, from what I've heard, these injectors simply flow more fuel!
Yes, IMO, they would be an upgrade to a chipped 5ktq. I've heard that
they are in fact cheaper or close to oem prices of 5ktq injectors.
What I'm getting is a lean condition or a running out of fuel at 20lbs of
boost. Yes this is high boost but that's why I had the engine rebuilt the
way I did. I too have a k-24 on my motor which is very nice but is only
good to ~20-25psi anyway. Trying to push the envelope already I am;-)
Of course, if I were to do it again, I'd opt for something other than CIS
as this is a limiting factor, all things being considered. Hope this helps,
