Ben M. mentioned that he used Subaru 1.8L injectors in his Turbo 914 setup.
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act...=ST&f=2&t=17090 Seems like I heard someone say here that our injectors were NLA from Bosch. If need be, can we use Subaru injectors? What else can we use? I know there are alternatives like Megasquirt to replace your entire FI setup, but it would be good to know if there are alternatives by swiping parts from other makes. |

Absolutely nothing! Just wondering... although I wonder sometimes about the FI on the '75 Bus! It's just good to have a backup plan when things need fixing.

Ernie, I don't know if you could get these injectors to work properly with the D-jet injection. I'm using aftermarket EFI and can tune to whichever injectors I choose. D-jet has some flexibility, but probably not enough to do that kind of injector swap easily. These Subaru (Nippon) injectors are actually rated for a lower flow than the standard 914 D-jet injectors. Now that i'm running the turbo I've maxed them out and I'm about to switch back to 2.0 D-jet injectors. -Ben M. |

OK, It runs now, and pretty good too! Group: Members Posts: 1,445 Joined: 3-January 03 From: Santa Clarita, Ca Member No.: 85 Region Association: None |
I never got a confirmed part number on this, but some Jags run green bosch injectors that are the exact size and shape of the ours. I took some from the junk yard but never did anything with them.
