injector bar pressure question.
Can anyone tell me what the bar pressure is on a factory injector? I was reading online trying to find it and can not. Also whats the difference from the factory bar pressure compared to PODS. Do higher HP injectors have a higher or lower? Do all (factory and PODS) have the same spray angles and patterns? Thanks for the info

Stamped on the injector body. Pop pressure for stock VE motor injectors is 245bar. PODs run around 260bar, IIRC and a 4-hole pattern but don't recall their spray angle. I wanna say 155*?
Eariler, non i/c motors have larger piston bowls and a 155* injector spray angle and the later i/c ('91.5-'98) motors have smaller piston bowls and a 145* injector spray angle.
Typically, the higher the pop pressure, the better atomization you get from them. Higher HP capabilities will probably require a slightly higher pop pressure.
Vice versa with lower pop pressures that tend to lead to hazing/smoke, poor mileage and a better chance of burning up pistons.

But go to high and it can hurt the injector pump. I had my 5x.16's set at 255 bar and they seem good so far. I think my hazing is due to the star wheel being all the way down and smoke screw turned in.
