Default Whose sent their injectors to Witchhunter?

Did you feel it was worth it? I'm getting ready to pull the manifold off and all that stuff. Since I'll have the fuel rail out I figure I may as well either get new injectors or send them in to be cleaned.

Witchhunter does them for $20 a piece of I can get rebuilt ones on pelican for $55 a piece. As I understand it after reading their website, witchhunter replaces the seals and everything right? So when I get them back they are ready to be reinstalled immediately (no other work needed?)?

I did this mid last year. Car seemed to have some more pep and the injectors even sounded better. Not to mention they were clean.

I sent them two sets - one of the injectors turned out to be dead so they didn't charge me anything for it.

Cleaned, balanced, new seals & caps. You get a before/after report on condition, very happy - plug & play.

I've used them a number of times and will use them again if needed.

Nothing but good to say. Very quick turn-a-round. 1 week from Ohio and back.

+1 for Witchunter
I send them injectors every two seasons. And I always have a spare "fresh" set in the trailer.

I had a set of rebuilt injectors and one leaked so bad it was unusable. I would vote WH over rebuilt even if the price were the same.

I have sent 1 set of Turbo Injectors, they noticed 1 was leaky - but it's a good investment, they change the filters too

Yeah I've also used them twice, loved their service. One was out of spec so it was thrown out and I got a refurbed from them for next to nothing. Great product.

When I pulled my intake to fix old vacuum lines, AOS seals and a number of other things, I sent my injectors to Witch Hunter. I got back bench test data before and after, all the seals replaced, they were cleaned, painted and individually bagged. It was quick turn around and they recommend you install them within 30 days. don't know why but I put them back in after cleaning the top of the motor, media blasting the intake and repainting it with VHT. I give them top marks and haven't heard of any negative reviews by anyone.

Speaking of AOS seals, does the oil need to be drained to do that? As I understand it, the filler neck needs to be taken off completely.
