Default D16Y7 injectors

Turboing my 98 DX in the near future and just planning and gathering parts. I'm gonna run a FMU and missing link and 6 pounds of boost until I can save up for better management and turn up the boost to 8 or so.

What are the size of my stock injectors? I've heard they are 240, 220, and 180 so I'm not exactly sure. This will affect the disk I get for my FMU. Thanks.

From a recent experince with a mini me swap we found out they are junk smaller than other honda injectors. Get some 240's

Go back and read my post. It said the FMU is just a temporary thing. I'm only going to be keeping boost at 5-6 lbs at that time - the FMU will be just fine for that. I just want to get boosted asap while saving for better management.

This thread is about the size of my injectors. Nowhere did I ask for recommendations on what kind of fuel management to use. I know all about the AFC hack and Uberdata, thank you very much, and I won't be using either of the two.

So far in this thread somebody has said they are 240's and somebody has said they are smaller. Back to square one.

If it matters I have a D16Y8 intake manifold complete with the fuel rail and injectors - I could probably just use those.

They are NOT 240's !!!!!!!!
Whoever says so is WRONG.
I confirmed this when trying to run a my chipped ecu on my pals STOCK Y7.
Car would BOG, STUTTER and not run.
When I installed Y8 injectors 5 mins later it ran PERFECT.

Venom also confirmed this when I saw a listing for after market y7 injectors. Stock size was said to be 190cc and the upgrade was some shitty 210 I believe.

Get some stock y8's or any other stock injector.

haha

the debate continues. Right now I have 240, 210, and 190.

Why would EX injectors be 240's and DX injectors be 190?

Either way I have those y8 injectors laying around so maybe I should get them tested?

The only reason why I ask is because if the DX injectors are smaller I should consider getting a FMU with a disk that throws more fuel into the mix right? And yeah yeah yeah..I know the FMU sucks but for a temporary means of ensuring enough fuel for 6 psi is being used, I think it will be just fine.
