Injector/boost controller advice?
Hi all,
I'm trying to decide if I ought to go to a different injector, and if so, which one. As my signature says, I have piers 370's and a #0 plate. The htb2 turbo is doing reasonably well at controlling egt's at 42 pounds of boost.
As you guys know, the 370's are smoky because their spray pattern does not properly match the shape of the piston top. I am going to eventually put twins on this truck, big enough to pretty much solve egt problems. I'm wondering if there's an injector out there that's properly matched to our piston tops that provides even more fuel than the 370's? I can pull the fuel plate back if necessary until I get the 2nd turbo. Other thing is, I need to raise boost a little. The wastegate rod is about as tight as it can go, so now's a good time to put an adjustable bleeder in the wastegate line. Where do you guys get one?

I have a TST elbow. Currently I'm using it to completely disable the wastgate, but I can back off the allen screw to limit the boost.
Yes someone has bigger than 370 injectors, with the correct spray patters. Not sure who makes them, but I know ***** has some. He ought to pipe in here soon.

Good, sounds great. I dunno if I can get someone to take my 370's in on partial trade or not-that would help me afford bigger ones. Not a thing wrong with the 370's, just that they're pretty smoky for towing the fema trailers and such. I literally have the smokiest daily-driven truck I know of. I've never seen one produce as much smoke as mine can. That's great for tailgaters, but not so good if I want to accelerate the least bit briskly without blacking out an intersection.

I run an EDM injector with the correct spray pattern. Much bigger injector than a 370 but no idle haze.
The injector can be sized for whatever needs you have.
