Not at all. It was my tuners idea to replace the injectors as he wasn't sure about spending the time to tune them from the start; after the walboro fuel pump went in we didnt spend any more time trying to fix the tune as we were always going to replace them. It was pegged around 300rwkw due to factory valve springs.

Those injectors will max a standard turbo and you paid less than $30 bucks per injector - it's been well documented what drilled injectors are and what can happen - there are several cars in QLD running high 300's with these injectors when tuned by the people who distribute them.

Actually you paid 100 bucks all up for the injectors - you bolt them in and a tuner who has either tuned drilled injectors before or is willing to spend a bit more time sorting them out you will be just fine.

I didn't imply anything in this thread except the drilled injectors were sh*t once I replaced the fuel pump which to be fair wasn't retuned straight after fuel pump was installed because the day after I then put 52lb injectors in. Right at the beginning of the thread we still had plenty of fuel at just under 300rwkw and I suspected valve springs were the cause. I have a receipt here the previous owner paid $550 for those suckers; I bought the 52lb bosch for 500 and then the 1000s for the same - did you ever question why they were for sale cheaper than even F6 injectors?

Now google Nizpro 72lb drilled injectors and see both sides of the their story. These injectors are not dissimilar and they will make the power you want as I said they would if you're tuner is willing to spend the time doing it. Drilled injectors by nature can have different spray patterns and the data for the factory injector goes out the window hence wht they can take a bit more effort to tune. The dyno sheet from my 288rwkw tune wasn't all over the shop; once we put the fuel pump in and had the injectors my tuner wanted he leaned on it and confirmed valve springs were shot.

If you're that worried put them up on ebay and make more than you're money back.

You bought drilled injectors. For 17 bucks each. Can't see how its my fault you didn't do your research.
