Why You Need This

When you're pushing serious power, OEM injectors become the bottleneck. The Bosch 0280158040 solves this with nearly double the flow capacity of most factory units, making it perfect for big turbo 2JZ builds, high-boost SR20DET setups, or naturally aspirated LS engines with aggressive cam profiles. The high-impedance design means direct compatibility with your Haltech ECU's injector drivers — no need for resistor boxes or additional electronics that can introduce failure points.

Our RED flow-matching programme ensures each set varies by less than 2%, critical for smooth idle and consistent AFRs across all cylinders. We've seen too many builds suffer from rough idle and uneven cylinder temperatures because of poorly matched injectors. Whether you're building a street-driven Skyline GT-R or a track-focused S-chassis, these injectors provide the headroom and reliability your tune demands, with excellent atomisation characteristics that work brilliantly with E85 fuel systems.

ECU & System Compatibility

Direct plug-and-play with all Haltech Elite and Nexus ECUs. The high-impedance design works perfectly with the injector drivers in Elite 550/750/1000/1500/2000/2500 and Nexus R3/R5 systems without additional hardware. Your tuner will appreciate the linear flow characteristics and excellent dead time consistency across the operating range.
