As far as I know the fuel pressure can be changed in a stock injector. However im not a motor genius and dont know what Im really talking about. Someone will answer with a informative post Im sure of it.

You can increase the fuel pressure yes and it is somewhat of an option to running bigger injectors. Im not sure what the point is of diminishing returns as far as PSI but you also have to worry about burning out your fuel pump because of the added strain high fuel pressures place on it.

youll need an adjustable FPR to adjust your fuel pressure. modify your fuel pressure would help flow more fuel. there is a formula for caculating flow rates somewhere. if you find that its pretty self explanatory.

Also a fuel pressure Gauge wouldnt be to bad of an Idea either.

you cant make an injector flow more than it is rated at. you can increase the pressure and up the duty cycle on it but if you had say 370cc you could run 80000psi and its still only going to flow 370cc

some sites also list their shit in lbs and formula:

10.5cc=1 lb so 50lb injectors are 525cc!

HTH

Nope Im afraid you are mistaken. If you take a 370cc injector all that tells you is that it flows 370 cc/min of fuel at a given fuel pressure. If you increase the fuel pressure you WILL increase the flow rate.

Actually you can compress (vise hammer etc) the stock FPR housing and increase fuel pressure that way as well. Its ghetto but itll get the job done. Pretty inaccurate though and theres no going back.

ok well it might be honda injectors then. i do believe its a different story with nissan injectors because they have this argument posted 3 times a day on FA forums. thanx for the correction.
