How different are turbo and non-turbo injectors?

Coachgeo got me wondering, I have a set of non-turbo injectors I was thinking about getting tuned and swapping in to my SD. How different are they? Are there pop pressure or flow volume changes for the turbo?

I may have the non-turbo numbers wrong but, turbo injectors open at 135 bar (1,958 PSI) and the nonturbo's open at something like 105 bar (1,522 PSI).

Thanks. Is it possible to shim them up to the higher pressure?

TomJ has been tinkering with injector shims for his BioDiesel 300D

I'd be willing to bet they can be adjusted to work with a turbo.

He wants the nozle tips from the truck/GWagen 617 Turbo injectors. They are supposedly the BEST for thicker fuels
