Awaiting my modded throttle bodies to be delivered. I'm also fitting the insulating gaskets. Is it worth fitting the uprated Bosch injectors whilst it's all apart?

Thanks.

Pretty sure you'll need a remap with those injectors. I believe they've been superceded now by "blue knights", so dont pay over the odds. Some places still want 100 quid an injector or more for them.

I contacted Five 0 in the states http://www.fiveomotorsport.com/ just give them your engine spec, type of injector currently being used, and what horsepower you want to run and they will tell you the options, mine cost approx. £230, and then had to pay another £40 approx. to customs once they hit the uk.

these guys are a pleasure to deal with.

remember any injector change will require a remap.(unless its like for like)

Apologies Stewart I get the hint! I've (finally) got them back from blasting and the bearings have turned up at last so I'll be on them early this week.

Absolutely no hint at all Andy. Still not sent the manifolds off yet.
