Presentation
Thank you for purchasing FT Injectors. In this manual you will nd all the information you will need to ensure proper operation, conguration and
maintenance of your injectors.
The FT Injector is available ow rate: 170 lb/h
Each FT Injector is made with the best possible materials, including corrosion-resistant internals, allowing them to be used with any fuel from gasoline
to Nitromethane, Nitropropane and even fuels that contain MTBE and ETBE. Silver plated terminals ensure the best electrical connection possible
along with an EV1 style connector for positive locking and vibration resistance.
Warranty terms
The use of this equipment must be in complete compliance within the terms set out in this manual, failure to do so excludes the manufacturer from
all responsibility.
This product is not certied for aeronautic purposes or any ying vehicles, as it has not been designed for such applications.
Before starting any electrical installation, disconnect the battery.
This product is not certied for aeronautic purposes or any ying vehicles, as it has not been designed for such applications.
In some countries where an annual inspection of vehicles is enforced, no modication in the OEM ECU is permitted. Be informed about local laws and
regulations prior to the product installation.
Important warning for proper installation of this product:
Always remove and insulate unused wires. NEVER roll up excess wiring as this may create an antenna that
captures electromagnetic interference that may generate product malfunction.

Installation
Electrical
- Pin 1: 12V to 24V switched power (never wire to constant power, this will damage the injector)
- Pin 2: ECU injector output (Blue outputs)
Electrical with Peak and Hold
Use the Peak and Hold is mandatory when to use injectors in gray and yellow outputs. In this case its necessary
to install a Peak and Hold 8A/2A. See Peak and Hold manual’s for more information.
Testing your injectors before rst startup
- Go to the outputs screen under the sensors and calibration menu in FTManager software
- Setup each injector output, write map to ECU
- Once the outputs are set, you can power the ECU up and click on the lightning bolt button near each injector output. The injectors will pulse when
the test button is pressed. Test each injector to ensure correct functionality, and to make sure they’re on the correct cylinder and rail according
to your selection.

EN
If your injectors are not working use the diagnostic
guide below
- Check all fuses related to injector power
- Check to make sure all relays related to injectors are energized
- Check for power at the injector connector with a voltmeter or
LED test light
- Check the injector output from your ECU with a noid light set or
LED test light
- Make sure either your peak and hold driver or jumper is plugged
in if using a FuelTech terminated harness
- Check for power and ground at your peak and hold module
Fuel injector installation
O-ring style injectors
a. Lube the upper and lower o ring with petroleum jelly or ATF
b. Press the bottom of the injector into your intake manifold injector
bung
c. Align all injectors and press the fuel rail onto the top of the injector
ensuring all of the o rings are intact and seated properly
IMPORTANT
Once installed, pressurize the system to inspect
for leaks before starting
NOTE
In some cases, it will be necessary to increase the diameter of the injector tting holes in the intake manifold.

Conguration
Navigate to engine settings on the quick access panel.
a. Click Fuel injection
b. Enter your total ow by adding your injectors together
Example: 170lb/h x 4 cylinders = 680
c. Enter your primary injector dead time
Battery voltage compensation
Next step is on battery voltage compensation in fuel tables.

EN
Base fuel pressure (differential)
The recommended base fuel is 43.5PSI, this allows a better fuel atomization in the combustion chamber.
Execute the following steps to regulate it:
a. Disconnect the fuel regulator vacuum hose
b. Rev the engine up to 3000RPM steady
c. Regulate the base fuel pressure at 43.5PSI or desired pressure, making sure to have a stable number
IMPORTANT
It’s not recommended use more than 120PSI of differential fuel pressure, this will damage the injectors

Max ow vs Pressure
Injectors are a volume ow device, This means it ows a certain volume of uid through it at whatever differential pressure you currently have over a
certain amount of time.
Example: cc/min (Cubic Centimeters per minute) or GPM (gallons per minute)
However Injectors are often talked about and displayed in pounds per hour. In Order to accurately dene this you need to know the density of the uid
you intend on owing through them. Below is some simple math on how this is done.
First you must know the specic gravity of the uid you will be owing through your injector. And then you need to know how many grams are in 1
pound (453.592)
Example: 0.72 grams per cubic centimeter or 720 kilograms per cubic meter.
Now you multiply your cc/min ow rate by the specic gravity then divide it by how many grams are in one pound and multiply by 60 to convert from
minutes to hours. Here is how that would calculate out below: (1785cc/min × 0.72 ÷ 453.592) × 60 = 170.003 Pounds Per Hour
If you change to a uid with a different density you need to do the calculation with the specic gravity of that new uid.
Now that we know how it’s calculated, here are some of the more popular fuels used in the racing industry.
