    IMHO- If you are not the one tuning it I think you are going to spend a good chunk to get the car to run properly.

    Contact Fuel Injector Connection. 770 888-1662

    Same base injector, 1/2 the price or better. Ask for Jon, tell him who sent you, I bet you get a good deal! ;-) He's pissed over the ID snobs, hes wanting to get his injectors out so people can post results. Tell him you dont want to buy overpriced injectors, I BET YOU he gives you a price break!! I just bought thier 1000cc and they run awesome.

    I'd stay away from FIC.... flow matched my ass! I know first had of a set of 160lber's that were tested before being ran in a stock bottom turbo car that had one injector that flowed 17% LESS fuel than the other 7! The paperwork had all 8 written down that they flowed 160.0lb/hr. Crazy quality control huh. Cheaper yes but you may have to buy 2 sets and flow them yourself to make 1 good set. That's just flow, not to mention response time matching as well.

    The old saying ya get what you pay for comes to mind.

    If you buy them from FIC Jon will likely provide you with the data you need....when I was having trouble with my engine on its first startup I called him and he sent me the data from a tune he just did using the same injectors on a customers car. The injectors didnt turn out to be the issue, but it was good service nonetheless.
