    Why would you want to fit these injectors?

    because the APX or AUM are larger than mine that are in my AGU engine also i am upgrading my turbo intercooler and manifold so i thought it would help when i get it remapped

    APX are 386cc @3 bar (ie 225 bhp audi TT injectors) only good for k04 turbo and a chipped one at max (can't fuel enough for 300 + bhp)

    Up to 300ft/lbs and revs at 6.5K a standard engine should be fine. Both of those turbos could be capable of 300+ft/lbs so you could be looking at internal work such as rods.

    In my experience they don't just fit in (if you do end up using them, sounds like you won't tho) I have heard from a few people that you can make them fit with some modification to the injector seat. It's something I still have to do on mine. Also note that the APX/AUM injector seats do not fit in a AGU inlet manifold....I know as I tried[:$]
