Give the injectors more room to do their job.
Give a more demanding 3.0 EcoBoost build the injector capacity it needs. Nostrum's Stage 3 bundle combines the Big Bore high-pressure pump with six Stage 3 direct injectors, keeping the original injection layout. Compared with Stage 2, you are paying for larger injectors while retaining the same upgraded pump. It suits the 2020-2023 Explorer ST, Lincoln Aviator and Police Interceptor Utility 3.0 EcoBoost applications.
SKU: H186-2060
The injector upgrade is the difference
The Big Bore pump flows 47% more than factory. The Stage 3 injectors add 96% over the original 3.0 EcoBoost injector flow, so they are the main step up from Stage 2. They retain an OEM-comparable spray pattern and operate through the engine ECU with the correct characterisation. You are paying for more injector delivery capacity while keeping the same Big Bore pump.
Why injector size matters
Larger injectors can deliver the required fuel mass in a shorter injection window, or allow the tuner to work with a different rail-pressure strategy. Nostrum discusses reducing commanded pressure from 24 MPa to around 20 MPa in a suitable calibration. That is a tuning possibility, not a pressure setting every owner should apply.
Stage 3 or Stage X?
Choose Stage 3 when the Big Bore pump meets your fuel demand and you need the larger injector set. For a 2020-2023 Explorer ST or Lincoln Aviator, Stage X uses the same injectors with the larger Goliath pump, which flows 60% more than factory. Choose that alternative when your engine and fuel combination need the extra pump capacity.
What is supplied
The Big Bore HPFP kit, application-specific formed fuel-line and pump installation hardware, six Stage 3 direct injectors, and installation/tuning information. Calibration and the Explorer ST / Aviator ESSIM ethanol sensor kit are separate. Fits the 2020-2023 Explorer ST, Lincoln Aviator and Police Interceptor Utility with the 3.0 EcoBoost.
Installation and long-term use
Arrange the calibration before installation. The tuner needs the correct pump and injector data, the intended fuel and the rest of the engine specification. The low-pressure supply must also meet the build’s demand. If ethanol content varies, use a suitable sensing and calibration arrangement rather than treating every fill as the same blend. The injector fitting guide involves removing the intake manifold and fuel rails, with correct seal sizing and a cylinder-by-cylinder injector record. It is a specialist installation rather than an external pump-only swap.
Warranty and records
Nostrum's limited lifetime warranty covers its manufactured parts against qualifying manufacturing defects. Installation labour and diagnostic costs are not covered. Keep your purchase details and follow the installation and fuel-system maintenance requirements.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Goliath pump included?
No. This package has the Big Bore HPFP. The Goliath pump is supplied in the Stage X bundle.
Does it have the same injectors as Stage X?
Yes. Both use the Stage 3 direct-injector set.
Will the larger injectors work at idle?
They need the correct injector data and calibration across the operating range, including idle. Fit them as part of a properly calibrated build rather than relying on the original software.
Should I set rail pressure to 20 MPa?
That is a calibration decision for the tuner. It is an example of what the larger injector can allow, not a universal setting.
Is the quoted 639 WHP result what my car will make?
No. That result belongs to a specific developed Explorer running E85 and its own supporting hardware and calibration. The bundle adds fuelling capacity; the complete build determines output.
