    While hybrids are nice on oil, you loose your fuel pressure at the tip. The reason you increase ICP when you're fueling harder is to increase nozzle pressure for atomization. A hybrid goes from the original 7 to 1 intensifier piston (21,000psi fuel @ 3,000psi ICP) to a 5 to 1 piston (15,000psi...

    Lol no, you're not... I've been preoccupied and busy. My Christmas vacation is making me stir-crazy, that's what started this thread lol. Man, I read what you wrote and I follow you, but there's one thing that still doesn't sit right with me. Yes, at higher pressures, you loose flow. But...

    I'm really not thinking I'm going to be out a whole lot either... I have an e99 so even if I was to go the 38R route, I still have alot to replace. I have decent fab skills and I know plenty of other able individuals that can do what I can't. I do have to buy another turbo, but that's not a...

    That's the plan... I may run a larger injector, I don't know yet. I can always go larger with the LP or even waste gate it if I can't keep the boost levels down. But I do appreciate not being bashed... it's a different idea, but I think it'd be great. I don't know if Mattbuilds injectors but...

    I guess my idea of big HP numbers is 550+... what you describe is what I'm shooting for with compounds and a smaller injector such as a 160/100. However, I might go a little larger, I don't know yet. But that was the idea behind the compounds was to make it clean and fun.

    I understand that... that's why I asked about smaller sticks. Because according to what he was saying, then I either needed a smaller HP so my LP wouldn't be so big for my smaller injectors, or my LP was too small period.

    I'm not looking for big HP numbers... I just want a clean, efficient 400-500hp. Truck needs to stay together and stay reliable, it'd my DD and my baby.

    The 362 could flow up to 74lb/min, but what it actually flows depends on the pressure ratio which then depends on how the setup works and I honestly have no clue of that until it's together and working in front of me. Figuring pressure ratios for a compound setup is completely different anyways...

    For a smaller injectors like 160's or 200's, would you still run that big of an atmosphere?

    I wouldn't know, honestly... I was at Casserly's mercy when I asked them what nozzle would empty a 160 in that window and I believe what he said was a 100% nozzle emptied a 160 in 2.5ms. I've never really been a fan of hybrids... while they're good on oil and dump fuel pretty well, by going to...

    I actually wouldn't mind a 38R, but I would like something different for a wastegate. You'd run a 362, even with 250's?

    Is it closer to 2ms or less as far as that window goes? I seem to remember 2-2.5ms... ether way, if I went bigger it doesn't make any sense to order 200's, 238's, or 250's and not run at least a 200% nozzle. 100% nozzles wouldn't utilize the added fuel of those injectors very well and empty them...

    So you'd go with a 362, not a 366? A 362 is basically an H2E with a 366 being the modded version. And yeah, that about sums up my goals... really smooth and clean power, higher boost pressures while cruising, really responsive bottom end, awesome top end, cooler egt's, better mileage, etc. Yeah...

    I understand that nozzles have to be large enough to empty the injector in that window to keep CP's down, I just wouldn't have thought that going to a 200-250 from a 160 would require a 200%. But then again, going from a 160 to a 200 is more of a flow increase than going from the stock AD to an...

    Small turbine because of the smaller injector size that I was considering, however I might consider something larger. co04cobra: I have my doubts as well, but I have to wonder at some of the numbers I've seen. I'm wondering what I good set of 200/100's would do? I know a good single will work...
