Do yourself a favor and get injectors from a european vender. I got some from germanautoparts.com made in india and they had braking pressures high and varied by 10psi upto 167psi 3 out of 4 started leaking within a couple days and burned the  nozzles. Also the mechanical seal surfaces were not ground to a polish, they had deep grinding marks. Junk.

Ended up going to princess auto to get a hydrulic hand pump and ordering nozzles from germany made in hungary and did it myself.  Car never ran smoother.

We have a set of Giles injectors in our car. He certainly works his magic on them as well as the IPs. Send them his way for sure.
