This thread is for the results of the testing of the differnece pop pressure at the same size.   

 

ANY REPLIES NOT ON TOPIC AND OR WITHOUT DATA WILL BE DELETED.  

 

I will be running 3 sets of DAP injectors first set at 305 bar, next at 330 and the last at 350 bar.  We are going to compare real world situtations and what the pros and cons are of increasing pop pressure.   All tests will be datalogged and video taped if applicable.   

 

The tune will be EXACTLY the same for all injectors.  al runs done on Lvl 3, so no wiretap being used

  • 330 vs 305 bar 0-60 So results between the tests,  Both tests were WOT snap from a standstill, same stretch of road, and ambient temps within ~5*f of each other.      Note the area

  • 350 bar injectors are in an WOW is all I can say.  When comparing the 305 bar to 350 bar I could EASILY run a tune starting %5 higher with the 350 bar injectors and still have significantly less smoke

    Thanks for the update.  I want those injectors to run good for you.  I would like you to send them back in.  Check with warranty@dieselautopower.com and lets get it fixed for you.

Well I'm going to bring back up this old thread. Now that the temps have gotten hot I am 100% decided that I have to bring my pot pressures back down. Unless I run at least two quarts of two-stroke oil and let off the throttle just right when slowing down the truck will look so bad that it dies. It has almost gotten me into a couple accidents when the power steering stops going around the corner. It has always done this a little bit but the higher Pop pressure has exaggerated it and it cannot be driven this way. I'm at the point where I don't believe that there is much of any benefit to raising the pop pressure. Also now that it's hot out it's hard for me to drive smoke free and it is hazier at idle than I expected as well. Overall I guess I just don't see this as being a benefit really. Once I can get to a point where my truck can be down for a couple weeks I will probably pull injectors and have them repop 2 somewhere around 310bar I believe

It appears you have a manual transmission, I am not sure how the power steering would be effected with the clutch out an in gear?? It would just be like coasting, which is 0 fuel being injected as well.

You're right but I can't always be in gear and coasting. Going around the corner trying to shift and it dies. I'd have to 100% change my driving Style 2 leaving it in gear at every single opportunity that I could. It's nearly impossible to make it not lope and the hotter it is outside the worse it is.

interesting results to say the least. 

7x.013 340 bar... Also have .093 tubes

Betcha if they where stock it would hold up better. 

Agree but unfortunately I don't have that option. Still doesn't change my mind that the benefit is very slight in my opinion. Not likely worth the probable added wear

I had about 25k on my injectors with 350 and 330 bar.  some 80+ days and some 0 days.   

 

Highway towing etc.    I think 340 is too high.  I think 330 was about right for my application.  I seen a pretty big difference going to 330 from stock, but not a huge amount going from 330 to 350, and there were draw backs at 350 like you are seeing.  

 

 

I really dont see how it could wear more truthfully.  The pump is going to create WAY more pressure during the stroke than the pop pressure.  

 

Remember Bosch says 327 bar is within spec.

293 bar to 327 bar is within stock specifications.

So would a safe bet be get pop pressure set to 330 and have it drop to 320 or so? DD with hauling wood/dirt here and there…

I wouldn't unless you want to R&D with it.

Nick, I was talking to Mike, and I was thinking of 315 Bar on my 100hp injectors. What are your thoughts? 

 

Bear in mind I still have an S03, and I'm willing to play to see if I can get this smoke under control.

300-314BAR is Bosch spec for the injectors on a VP44 Dodge.  315BAR is not going to be much change.

Don't you mean 293 to 327 bar? So 4,250 PSI equal to 293 bar and 4750 PSI is equal to 327 bar. At least from the Dodge FSM book.

That is a wider range than the Bosch ESI[Tronic] specs for the stock injectors.  Operating envelope given by dodge is broader than Bosch has for parts spec.

Thank you for specifying that... I know the Bosch ESI[Tronic] I might have to fire it up and look it over.
