Take back the keys!

Heres a bunch of different #'s , Formulas, and different info that might help along the way. I will continue to add to it when i come across different things. if anyone has anything they would like to add let me know.

Fuel System
_______________________________
The equation to estimate fuel consumption by horsepower output is as follows:

HP x BSFC(0.65) = fuel use in lb/min x 0.0107 = liters per minute x 60 = lph

Or, you can skip all the middle stuff and multiply HP x 0.42 to get lph. Example:

250hp x 0.42 = 105 lph

Conventional wisdom is that the pump should be adequate to supply the rate required for maximum horsepower output plus 20%. Here is a table of calculated rates:

HP…..lph…..lph + 20%
250….105….126
300….126….151
350….147….176
400….168….202
450….189….227
500….210….252

**********Based on a 4 cylinder engine.any more or less will be different*********
HP Goal – Min Injector Size (cc/min)*
250hp-....... 550cc
300hp-....... 650cc
350hp-....... 750cc
400hp-....... 850cc
450hp-....... 950cc
500hp-....... 1050cc

Heres a calculator to help you figure out injector size's.

http://www.rceng.com/technical.aspx <--- has lots of info on selecting injector sizes

I was going to run 550's on a 350hp set up...

lol 500hp setup needing 1050cc injectors? News to me!

oops... thats based on a 4 cylinder setup... should have marked that.. my baddd

That 400 hp one seems dead on that is what I was going to do run 880's if I did the 18/20g turbo that I had.

hmm good info
