So if I go up to 83lb that would make the pulse width close to 1ms.....turn on time for injectors are in that vicinity I think.

What AFR's are you running on idle?

I might give it a go and see after your comments.

I use a LINK MAP with one of Russel's chips. It took a few tries to get the chip setup to my car but Russel was very helpful with the reprogramming. With resistors, the 83# injectors need to be "hit" a little harder. At idle I have to set it a bit rich do to something with the MAP. If I don't set it slightly rich at idle, I get a lean spike on initial accelration(I think this is because I use MAP Accel mode and not TPS). I can lean it out and it will still idle fine however. It took me about 1 month to get the car's AFR worked out for the new injectors, mostly again due to using an unfriendly LINK MAP, lol. Now it runs great in all temperatures and I am very happy with the current setup.

The only minor thing I see with the 83lb in my car is that it is MUCH more picky on what spark plugs I am using. The car would have a hard time starting and run rough with NGK's but runs perfect with the same temperature Bosch plugs.

They are discussing Link standalone, not the AFM Link piggyback.

Yes I know this , in my first post I stated I was using the stock DME with batch injection and 83# injectors. The point of my post was to say that 83# could work fine with batch injection and to further this, if 83# works on a stock 20year old DME then they certainly should work on any newer standalone with batch, semi-batch, or full sequential injection.

My reply was regarding the use of batch injection and 83# injectors.

Thanks for any info and feedback regardless of which system. I am also using 83's but I see in the manual on the net that they need ballast resistors etc. I'll have to check if we need to make a change to our current setup. Not sure how many of you have heard of Zoran's car back in Australia. It's the white turbo 968 that is in some written articles and also some video has been made of it. Anyway he uses LINK+G3 and has a 3.0L turbo, but it's 16v. Still he might have some useful info and/or Maps too. Not sure how different the 16v will be or where it is different but even if he has contacts here that have dealt with it and the system can be beneficial.
Zoran's car pic below has hit 437kw at the wheels. I make that about 660hp crank. Not bad!

I am very satisfied with my Link. I have the G2 and its really easy to use and tune. I did tune an Autronic map last week and I can say that Link is a lot more userfriendly. Another thing is that I trig only at the cam, you dont need to have a crank trigger. I can really recommend it!

Hey Guys,

Im running the new Link Plus G3 on my Supra V8 Turbo project. the G3 is really competing with the major brands in terms of functions, and are working on peak and hold in built from what I understand. So yes resistors are needed for now. I used 850cc Siemens injectors with resistors on my old Link Plus G2 and it ran very well. The G3 bang for buck is an awesome deal to be honest.

Patrick, in the top 10 hp thread Zoran wrote 401 kw at the wheels at 23 psi with 98 oct with ELF 50/50?
Still not bad though

Mikael, I was going to email you to check up on how you were going and ask about your experience with LINK. Probably still will.

Andrew, you were also on my list. I need to run a couple things by you as well. I have 83lb injectors, what do these equate to in cc's?

Duke, I spoke to Zoran yesterday and he has gone over that level on higher boost. I believe he may have experienced some head lift after that but I'll have to check.

I remember he wrote about going back to make a run at 26 psi. Would be interesting to know the details!

to check.
83lb/hr = 872cc/min
