I am currently maping out a remote turbo setup...with that in mind i need to upgrade my injectors...cant i go with the ford racing 24 lb injectors?...and if so are they matched?...accel has 24 lb matched injectors for $260 but i can get a set of fords for $200...whats everyone else running?

Most people run the FMS because they are cheaper. I think the ones that Bruce sells are matched. Most FMS ones have better tolerances anyway. The Accel does not use a 4 hole design though, so I don't think they spray as well as the FMS. I think I have only run across 2 or 3 Daks that went Accel, the rest were all FMS.

I would also suspect the term "matched" to have more sales value than performance value.

fms = ford motorsport?...also can anyone recommend a good inline fuel pump to aid in fuel delivery for a 6 - 9 psi turbo system...i guess similar to powerdynes but not $494 (ouch)

with this calculation...

Typically, at wide open throttle, full power, an engine requires 0.5 lbs. of fuel per horsepower every hour. A gallon of gasoline weighs approximately 6 lbs.
Therefore an engine rated at 350 horsepower will require about 175 pounds
(29 gallons) of fuel every hour.
(350HP x .5 lbs = 175 lbs of fuel
175 lbs/6 lbs = 29 gallons per hour)

i assume i will get about 425 hp with my set up...so

425 x .5 = 212.5
212.5 / 8 = 25.56 gph or 98.42 lph

so will this pump from jegs suffice me?

As a booster pump it looks like more than enough and the prices is nice.
