hi i have hose tail injectors in my VL turbo. there blue.
people who installed them only know them as merc injectors. i bought them 3 years ago. they may be bosch 036. is this is the same.
can any one tell me exactly what cc they are and what latency they are.
is the latency important?

Get them cleaned and flowed. You should do that anyway for secondhand injectors.

The latency can be figured out when tuning.

They are extremely rare these days, there's a mention on Calais turbo

latency is not so critical, just dial them in at 800us and work back.
The final latency will depend on how much fuel pressure is at idle/cruise.
