Question Racetronix injectors. What am I missing?

Anyone using injectors from them? (Simens) Why are they half the price of injectors from other tuners selling the same brand? Am I missing something here?

They're who I plan on getting my injectors from, I've only heard good experiences with them on Corvettes.

Corvette is not Porsche though. I am not worried about their reputation, just about their injectors in 951's... still cant see why they are so cheap! And that there is little reference to them on here...

This is the source where the tuners buy their injectors and sell them to you for twice the price. I have them, they are great.

Cool, with resistors? What impedence and lb's did you get? I have a Link2, will that affect the need for impedence level or resistor type?

I picked up a set of the 55# injectors from Racetronics. Have them here infront of me. They look perfect and are flow matched. The things got here in about four days. All I need is my Guru chips...........

I tried to find the resistors locally and ended up going with Newark.com. They were really quick. Had them the next day. All I need is my Guru chips............

There was a post a few weeks back about those resistors (yes, you need them). If you can't find it, please send me a PM and I will get you all the information you need.

You use those with the 2.35 ohm Siemens injectors, or the 2 ohm Delphi injectors?

Your missing nothing, just saving 50%. I bought siemens #55 from them last year. There are no surprises other than the money you save.
I also got my resistors from Newark and then number posted originally by Rob and now by Mike B is the number I used.

$50 apiece for the Siemens 86 lb/hr injectors seems like a great deal. Will that Newark resistor work for the 86lb/hr injectors as well?

All of the Siemens injectors on that site that are Low-Z are the same resistance, so those Newark resistors will work with any of them, regardless of flow rate.
