What flamethrower injectors are better?

I am about to get a set of flamethrower injectors for my 3vze. I already have a cold air intake and the 7mge afm on it which i love..... I don't know what injectors will work better and what is the difference between the two?

Ask flamethrower about the flow rates of each. Decide if you want MORE fuel and want to adjust parts of your electronics to accommodate, or you want something the car's engine can handle on it's own.

Either or as far as flow rate. I would have to adjust my afm either way I go.

Not entirely true. The ECU will adjust to a certain percentage of flow differential from stock.
I put the tan ones in my 3vze, and I don't need an adjustment to the AFM.

the gray (Bosch type 2) injectors flow somewhere around 8% more than stock. this has given a few people problems in the past.

the tan/yellow injectors flow within 2% of stock so there should be no problems or adjustments to be made. and the tan injectors are a later design (Bosch type 3) that is more consistent injector-to-injector and they are less prone to injector deposits.

i recommend the tan injectors. i have them at a low price at the moment because i am still rolling them out and i am still working on the videos i will have for them.

Not trying to change the point of this post but how do you like the 7mge afm? I went to go get one from the wreaking yard that they said they'd save for me the day before and they sold it! Can't wait to do the mod

Love it. You have to adjust the fuel ratio back a little but other than that I get better mpg and hp

If you use a 7mge coil and gap your plugs to supra spec (.042) supposedly it helps performance to go along with the supra afm
