I purchased a set of these injectors beginning of last month. My car is almost finished with the rebuild process from pineapple and gtgarage and do not want to take any chances. The last post on rx7club was sometime ago and there were many people claiming they were going to flow test these things, any word?



thanks!

Someone did send those to RC and they came out flowing only 550cc/min. You better double check before you drop those in.

Don't put them in, you will only have troubles, I had my results back today, my factory 550cc injectors flow more than these.



Get them tested, you might be lucky and have a good set, mine were not 550cc doesn't cut it for me

yeah, I talked with my mechanic and he is going to send them out to get flowed. but, I dont want to take any chances! Even if they come back flowing 1600cc I will probably buy some 1680's top feed fab. a custom fuel rail. Even if they are 1600, I have alot of uncertainty about their longevity.

doesn't look good for these being 1600's! I am having the guy flow test them two more times to be sure, and I will post all results when I have something definitive.
