got some on my gf car. her 3 injector was leaking and we bought some used ones sent them to dashwerks. it took about month turn around and they work great, no leaks no problems. they sent the bench test with the refurbished injectors and replaced all the parts. i think it cost $77 for all four stock injectors. off that experience i would suggest them.

I have their 740cc injectors in my S13. They have worked with no issues until a few weeks ago.

Car started running rough. Then would smooth out. Then just kept running like crap, and was leaned out past what my EUGO could read.

One injector took a crap. The coil fried. So I sent the whole set back. They replaced two of them, surprisingly. They replaced the one with the fried coil, and then replaced another one because it was out of spec. Then they R&R'd the others.

Good guys, and they stand behind their product. I was only a week and a half without my injectors. Didn't matter, cuz I'm without turbo anyways.But I haven't installed the new ones yet. But I'm sure they're fine.

Great product. Ive had them on all three of my cars. Easy to use. Just put them in the rail and plug them in. No resistors, no different fuel rails etc...

Customer service is worth paying extra for, the fact that they are affordable makes them a win win in my book. The drop in 740's are a KAT's favorite injector IMO. Plenty of fuel yet you can still retain a decent idle.

Off Topic: That is a great username dude

Their customer support is great. I picked up a set of used 555s off the forums, with the nico discount the cleaning is cheap. So i sent them off for a cleaning/flow test/etc.

Total time they were away was like 4 days. Great company, it was really fast, and they gave me a call to let me know that everything was fine and they were shipping them back when they were done.

OK SO. i have ordered a set of 555 cc injectors from deatschwerks. cool. i have not even heard a word from them on shipping or an arrival date. not cool. i ordered them at the begining of last week. i know it was a holiday week , but im figuring the least they could do is call or email me back with some sort of reply. this doesnt seem like the usual customer service from them. should i go to the lengths of pestering them every day till i get answers???

and for all those who have had them in for a while, how are they running for you in the long term?

Since the thread was bumped, I'll add some more of my personal experiences.

My story is up above. But I have more news...I had a set, two took a crap, they got replaced. But then another injector took a crap. It was one of the original two that didn't get replaced. So I'm guessing it's only a matter of time before they eventually crap out. So basically I only have one of the original injectors I bought 1 1/2 years ago.

Take it for what it's worth. They've always helped me when I needed them. The service has been great. They do stand behind their products. But like you said, communication has been a bit on the 'crap' side. Usually took 2-3 business days before I got responses to my e-mails. So make sure you disclose EVERYTHING in your original e-mail, or you will be going back and forth for a while. And don't even try talking to them over AIM. I don't know who's in charge of that.

My $.02. Overall, I'm happy with their stuff. My S13 is a daily, and it's been great as far as driveability. I have an eMance tune.

You guys do have phones right? i kid i kid.....really though...In most cases it is easier for a company to take a phone call then it is for them to be on AIM, or checking email continually.

i mean, when i'd sent my injectors in for cleaning, i'd given them my cell number. Soon as they finished cleaning them they called me up, told me how everything went, double checked my paypal payment, and i got my injectors back 2 days later.

use the phone luke... Use the phone!

Pulling up an old thread haha

Anyways Ive heard good things about these injectors. Also eazye2000 having the tune also stresses the injectors more because the tune has them working harder with its "optimized fuel maps" Might be a reason they crap out yearly just thought id throw that in there.

I will be getting a set of 370s and will see how they do and how long they last.
