Im looking for a set of injectors for my CA if anyone has a set for sale, they can be DSM injectors but im looking to make 230-250whp but i want enough to play with injector wise if i wish to make 300-320whp.

im not sure if the 450's would be enough or if id have to go with the larger ones? basically wondering what power level the 450's are good untill? and of course if anyone has some for sale.

450's should cover it. You'll be near the limit at the 300HP mark, but still safe.

if i'm comfortable trying to make 250whp, does it make a difference if I get 450's which are safe there or 740's which are also safe?

any difference in ease of tuning, idling, etc?

yea, they were my buddies in his GVR4 galant, he ran them for awhile without the pintle cap, its only one 1 of them, so its not like ALL of them have bad caps, i still have the cap if you wanna JB it on or something just to be safe

my paypal is [email protected]

make sure to send your address with the payment, and ill get those out to you as soon as i receive payment

the caps are really hard to get on, and once you get them on by hand they dont like to stay..best bet would either be to JB it on, just a little bead around it, email the guys at 'fuelinjectorclinic.com' or just run it w/o the cap.

ive been told you shouldnt mix and match sets of injectors, or else id get you one with a pintle cap for no charge

i see there is a guy selling new caps o-rings and such as a kit online for like $15.00 so i should be able to get the cap from the dealer.

If i JB weld that back on there is no way itll fall down into the motor if it brakes loose or something right?

would $60 shipped be alright?

i dont know the specifics of it, ive never delt with a cap comming off, but you can always just call someone and see, putting a new cap on cant be that big of a deal, but like i said, ive never tried besides this 1 injector..and i didnt try too hard

but yea 60 shipped sounds good to me
