Injectors

[S4CJO]

This has probably been done to death elsewhere in the forum. However need to either have the std injectors on my 450 cleaned or replaced with new. Going down the new route any thoughts on a supplier?

Just done the same with my 450, TVR Parts Ltd.

Part no TVRE0351, standard Lucas injector. and they were the best price for new anywhere I could find.

Delivered in 24 hrs !

I think I'm right in saying the original injectors are good for 300bhp minimum, correct me if I'm wrong.

Some Reconditioning companies are renowned for doing a good job on injectors, might be worth comparing the price of new against getting yours reconditioned, they tend to know wether or not your injectors are past being reworked so they'll inform you before doing them! Cost of the post at worst.
New injectors do sound sexy though

Got some vectra ones ready to go and get cleaned and serviced

For cleaning try http://www.precisiontune.com/Franchisees/Salisbury... They offer a postal service and I think I paid about £10/injector 18 months ago.

Many thanks all, think I'll check out getting them cleaned and tested may only then need to replace any suspect ones.

I've used them.
Came back cleaned, tested, new seals, new filter baskets and a report on how well matched they were.

Quick service.

Do these support higher Bhp than the O/E ones Pete.
Better spray too I once heard?

It's mostly the pattern and some more flow

Did you mean "maximum", not "minimum"?

[phazed]

I ran 340+ with original Lucas injectors but changed shortly after for the Vectra items.

Mine are standard items. Over 400bhp you really need bigger ones said Dom (trying to prise open my wallet yet again...)
