    Re: RC Fuel Injection

    There was a thread a while back on h-t about some problem with RCs, I searched for it but can't find it..but it was only with one specific size/type of injector, not the typical 1000cc peak and hold most turbo guys use..

    Yeah I remeber that I think it was the 850cc p&h or something. A bad batch or something they said.


    I had my stock injectors cleaned by them back in like 97 and even back then it was a quick turnaround with a legible readout sheet.


    I know that was a long time ago but I would use them again.

    Re: RC Fuel Injection

    I bought two OEM injectors from them a number of years ago. They said they would occasionally test for Honda so they had some "barely used" ones for $42 each. Honestly, I think it was in 2001. Just as good as new ones as far as I can tell.

    Re: RC Fuel Injection

    I am not sure if it is RC or another company, but that they use the same injector and just bore them out to flow more, then balance them. I don't know if this is the standard for all injectors or not, but I have heard that as a complaint against them, and a reason they are more affordable.

    Also I have heard they have a rather high minimum pulsewidth, but I haven't been able to find stats on RC vs stock or even RC vs other aftermarket injectors, so that statement doesn't really hold up without data to support it.

    I think they are probably totally safe to use. And the price is right.

    Re: RC Fuel Injection

    So, how much is the cleaning/testing service vs the cost of new alternative aftermarket (precision, etc) injectors?
