Ebay Fuel Injector Questions

[beastmar]

I know I may get some heat for asking, but I thought I'd give it a shot. Does anyone have any experience with purchasing 1000cc injectors from ebay? I'd rather not shell out the cash for ID right now and the tuner I am going with will not tune with DeatschWerks. Please follow the links below. I know these will require adapters to fit our harness as well.

Thanks!

Some of those are probably counterfeit. You need a good quality injector as the better the data you have and more consistent your injectors are the better to tune.

Do you really want to risk your engine to save a few hundred on knock off injectors? Depending on your goal you might be good with 80# injectors that cost the same or less than those eBay ones.

Would you say those are knock off injectors? What brand 80# would you recommend?

This.


Just spend the money and get a real set of injectors. I can guarantee there is no data for those injectors, and if by some miracle there is - it won't be accurate.

Injector dynamics are expensive, but they're the last injector you'll need. Ya get what ya pay for man

I run these without issue:

Injectors are something you only want to do once because new ones will also need a new tune which adds more to the cost. If you can't afford ID and don't plan to change soon then these might work for you.

It can be a gamble buying an injector like that. Your tuner may struggle to tune with those injectors. It is always good to go with an injector that there is accurate data for. You don't want to cheap out on injectors. I would talk with your tuner and see what he recommends outside of Injector Dynamics. I installed Ford Performance Parts 80s in my car, and I am shooting for 700 rwhp.

The most I plan on pushing my car would be in the 700 rwhp mark. So 1000cc injectors might be overkill right? Or is the tuneability and driveability of the ID's that much better? Worth it?

Get FRPP 80s flow tested sub $500. Will be more than you need at your level. Well make sure your tuner can tune them.

What fuel?

E85 and 91 would be for backup just in case I am driving out of town without E85 stations around.

if you're on E85 I would go with ID1000s. Yes they're expensive, but the data for them is readily available, and they are kickass injectors.

I ended up buying some ID1050x injectors. Thanks for the input everyone!

My friend thinks my old 60# injectors were possibly counterfeits because they threw a code. Bought new Ford racing ones and code went away and it drove much better
