thats odd, those look nothing like the ones i sell from precision.

regardless, so long as they flow like they should all is well.

I was hoping to hear from you on these! And NO, that's not what I wanted to hear.

I think it was asked once before, but I never saw an answer...........If they test OK, and are not a "Good quality injector name brand" will they stay the same basically? I'm sure over time, they will begin to drop, but should that happen evenly? Or, should I just worry until I hear a boom.haha

Those are the same ones that blew up our engine, I wouldn't put those in my car if they were free and you paid me $500 to install them.
You didn't see my post? Import Blowout Sales on EBAY is a scammer!!!

Yeah, the flow sheet was missing...... yeah right, they were tested :bsflag:

Yes Aaron, I did see your post.........and I trust your opinion more than most anyone here. Did you have yours flowed prior to using them? That has to be my main concern now. What are the chances.......1st ...that they will flow evenly..........and 2nd........that they will hold up over time if they flow evenly to begin with?

I am not the most knowlegeable guy here. For years this community has used this product, and I suspect that a good percentage of them have come through ebay. I simply did what 100's of people have done before me, and that very day, this thread came to life...........Go Figure

Do you wonder if the flow sheet will be "accidentally" lost during packaging and shipping? I'm curious, but I'm not gutsy enough to waste my money on something I have serious doubts about.

Damn, I was right! Ask the seller where the flow sheet is and see what excuse they come up with ;).

Please don't think I'm mad at you for buying them, it's Imoprt "ENGINE BLOWOUT" Sales that I have a problem with. Since several people have already tested them as being bad brand new, maybe you should just try to get a refund instead of paying more to get them flow tested :dunno:

If they flow well, they'll continue to flow well.

...get some flow data, don't take any risks. $20 is cheap insurance.

the one on the left yes. i have no idea what the inj on the right is. the body looks nothing like the ones we sell.

more stuff i want to clarify.

ive never sold a 550cc injector from precision. they are 580cc.

and these days, i rarely sell those. i cant compete w/ the pricing on ebay. where mine are flow tested, matched and come with a warranty direct from precision, it all comes down to money. the only ones i really sell now are the 680cc and 1000cc. i can beat the ebay price on those for the most part. just not the smaller ones since those are the ones they buy mass quanities of.
Whats the price that u sell the 580CC injectors flow tested and w/ warranty? And just a curious thought could there be a way u could get like a group buy price and have reign or shaeff approve of it?

the injectors 580-880cc are $450 w/ clips. people have been buying those 550cc injectors for cheaper on ebay (albeit they are different than the ones i sell), which is why i dont sell the smaller ones much anymore. most of what i sell are 680cc+ because $450 for those sizes are a pretty good deal. i can also sell 1000cc injectors for a great price, but have only sold 2 sets of those to mk3 guys (go figure haha).

i'll see what i can figure out w/ getting a group buy together if there is enough interest.

yeah all size injectors are going up. not sure how much just yet.
and yes they are already machined and ready to drop in.

if anyone wants a set at the current price let me know. so long as you pay by tues you can get it at that. when i find out how much they go up i'll post back.

scott- im still waiting to hear back about yours.

I shipped them off to get flowed yesterday. I think I'm just going to use them IF they flow evenly. I don't hold much hope that they will be perfect, but we'll see.

Many people have used them without problems ( at least not that they blamed on the injectors)......but some including Aaron have had problems. I'm so confused!
