SupraAyf Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Guys, I have a set of direct replacement injectors that I need flow testing (Venom 780's) and I was wondering who does the best job and with the best price tag. I do have a flow test sheet for the 6 injectors that came from the States, but I just don't trust the findings. Test sheet attached Thanks everyone in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Give Chris Wilson a buzz, I believe he does it a very reasonable rate. Hmmm, venom injectors you say.... I do like the comments on the test btw... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will do mate - very many thanks:) Hmmm, venom injectors you say.... I know what you're thinkning - me too:( I do like the comments on the test btw... Great reading though:rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bromy Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 I know what you're thinkning - me too:( And me, have read before about these over on SF..... problems with them sticking open and the flow rates on the test certificate not being correct varying up and down. Personally I would stay well clear of them and if you do get them tested yourself and find problems good luck in getting your money back.

Jake Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Even if those test results were genuine they're like 18 months old - so worthless now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Just use these guys. They do exactly what they say on the tin. No fuss, and reliable. http://www.injectorcleaning.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 IIRC, Chris Wilson does it for £15 per injector or less mate. Plus, you know his results are perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supradibbs Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Even if those test results were genuine they're like 18 months old - so worthless now. Agreed injectors should not be left laying around Its suggested that you should get new injectors flow tested regardless i have just ordered a set of 880s and i know for a fact i will be getting them done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 All injectors whether new or second hand should be flow tested. The cost is much less that going lean frying a piston and paying for a rebuild or new engine. At the end of the day it is up to individuals to decide. It depends on how lucky you feel. I purchased a set of 880's that where advertised as flow tested, still had them checked. The security in is knowing that they are 100 clean and all flow within a % margin.

JamieP Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 I had my new hks 1000cc's checked before fitting, they was all flowed perfect straight from hks, but i agree its worth checking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angarak Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Is it worth getting your injectors flow tested every x years? For example, I have a 95 JDM TT (34k miles) on what I believe to be stock injectors, since I've had the car Ive gone BPU. Given the cars age, and that its had Jap fuel and UK fuel in it, would the injectors benefit from being cleaned/flow tested or would it be pointless.

SupraAyf Posted January 20, 2007 Author Share Posted January 20, 2007 Guys, Thanks for all of your advice - it's much appreciated indeed. I certainly don't want any pistons frying so I'll get them checked prior to fitting (if I don't buy some others in the meantime!!). Cheers everyone, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
