Increased ICP, Bigger HPOP, What Can It Do For Me?

[theSLEEPER]

OK. Thanks! So, if you can hold 3100 throughout the RPM range in WOT, you'll be getting the best atomization possible?

That's the theory.

Can you ever have too much HPO?

[907DAVE]

Do you mean volume or PSI? Or both?

[cleatus12r]

You can have too much pressure. You can't have too much volume unless you have so much that the injection pressure regulator cannot bypass enough and you end up with excessive PSI anyway.

It's be theorized that the injection systems don't respond well above 3200 PSI with most systems actually working better at about 2900-3000 PSI. Part of the reason is that the poppets on the injector start floating at some point and don't allow proper injection function.

Most tuners generally limit ICP to about 3000 PSI at WOT. However, at cruise your ICP is closer to about 1600-1800 PSI so the whole over-pressurization issue becomes fairly moot. That is unless you're commanding 3600 PSI at cruise.

How much do ya'll think the HPOP is drawing from the motor, say at 2200 rpm's with 3000 psi.

Wow, should it be that high? Dont think I have ever seen my ICP that high @ cruise(60mph).
