Hi I was wondering on changing my injectors on my g 40 with g60 ones. Are they all a strate swap?  And we're is best to get them from.

Bosch injectors yes, few places supply, we supply injectors, just sold out of our 315cc's but getting more in stock soon :)

Yeah mate very easy to do. They pop up from time to time on here and ebay, just make sure they have been cleaned and tested recently. If needed PPP can do injector cleaning for £35 i think. Or they might have stopped this service now, worth asking them though.

0280150905 is the part number for the stock greens. If your running up to 190bhp the greens will be fine.

Dont forget you will need a chip/map.

Thank you very much. I think mine is ment to be running about 165 ish. So was thinking if I needed them or not. Then a toothed belt kit. That is all I am wanting to do. Eny one no of any toothed belt kits around.

PSD ones are usually recommended but they dont pop up that often.

not 100% sure but i think you can get away with using the standard g40 injectors still.

What mods have you got?

We're able to supply the toothed belt kits with either 60, 65 or 70mm pulley sizes.

We're also doing a 5PK ribbed belt conversion kit which we usually recommend over the toothed belt kit, the ribbed belt kit goes to down to 65mm with 68 and 70mm pulley options as well.

We don't recommend the toothed belt kit as it over stresses the bearings, I've also seen it destroy a charger due to over tensioning the belt. The only upside to it is you can go down to 60mm pulley but this would only be used in very extreme cases anyway! Track/race use etc

the 5pk belt conversion are probably just as good. And cheaper. Plus they dont f**k the charger up if you hit the rev limiter and rip teeth off the belt.

ive only had experience of the 5pk ribbed belt on one g40 - the pullies were alloy and the belt slipped much more than stock vee belts!

Jezza-7

haha i thought they would of been better than stock ones. Wonder if that belt slip spray stuff would be any good to use.

I ran toothies for ages never had any trouble but yet again i never really hit the limiter so thats my experience

Jezza-7

I've hit the limiter a few times and never had a problem. Just luck i think as the belts go 1st before the charger in my case. 3/4 belts this year lol.

Toothies are only a problem if over-tensioned - set 'em up like a cambelt and they're fine.

Poly-vee belts are very good where the auxiliaries and belt run is designed for them. They need to run with much more belt to pulley contact than you can get on a G40, which is why they tend to slip a lot. G60 tensioner is different. PSD tried them with the G40 M45 Eaton conversions, and could only get them to work reasonably well after adding an additional tensioner. Have a look at any car using a poly-vee from the factory and you'll see what I mean.

As for injectors, just avoid the Ford 'motorsport' 250cc/min injectors which are occasionally sold as G60 items. Their spray pattern is different, and can cock up the fuelling at low load/rpm.

90degree twist with finger and thumb on the longest free section and you'll not have problems.  Don't need to be as tight as the v-belts.

Thats been my problem, over tightening them. They give a really nice whine when tighter though  8)
