I recently acquired a car that was originally a 2L and have been told the engine size has been changed to 2.1, which I have not checked yet? The engine currently has webers. Can I use stock d-jet FI if it is 2.1?

If it has a carb cam ...then it's no.

What you can do is use most of the stock d-jet components except the ecu, cold start valve and throttle position sensor and then add an aftermarket ecu, Megasquirt in my case, with a few newer sensors for throttle position and intake air temperature.
This can be done for as little as $500 if you DIY or as much as $2,500 if you have someone do the work for you. As far as the injectors are concerned the 2 liter d-jet injector flow rate is sufficient to support almost 200 hp. |

Yes, I have a 2056 running stock FI, but working around an aftermarket cam has been tricky. Impossible if the cam were designed to take advantage of the Webers. |

The newer FJ67 injectors that are sold as replacements for the Bosch have slightly higher flow rates. I am running a 2056 with stock FI and cam with no issues.

If you're after a cheap option to try, you can increase the fuel pressure to the injectors by adjusting the pressure regulator. Probably best to install a pressure gage in there to what you're doing. Remember that flow rate is proportional to the square root of pressure to your injectors, thus is you want 10% more flow you need to increase pressure by 1.1 squared, or 21%.
Since you're only increasing displacement by 5%, in theory you'll only need 10.25% pressure increase. Not sure just how much a stock pump is capable of putting out however, no experience there. |

At least look into it. . . |
