[QUOTE="Gearhead, post: 202087, member: 503"] There are tradeoffs with the 200% nozzles at light loads and when cold and the 100% aren't always clean because of the process used. I have pleaded with the industry to produce a .009" EDM with a very light cleanup with extrude hone just like the 80% is a .0075" EDM with very light cleanup with extrude hone. The 100% starts life as the same nozzle size as the 80% but just gets more extrude hone work and the holes start losing their sharp edge, the holes get some other shape than round, and the pintle seats start to erode.... In the old days when the Mini-me was the injector of choice, the factory nozzle was taken to about 30% over stock with extrude hone work.... anything beyond that made for a drippy, crappy, smokey nozzle that ran worse in most cases. Same thing today, but we have a choice in EDM hole sizes so we should be ditching the 100% nozzles and getting something like a 120% (or whatever the flow rate equates to) with a .009" EDM with a light polish with EH..... This new nozzle would make more power than the current 100% and be cleaner. [/QUOTE]
