2G Thoughts on TREPerformance.com injectors??

[A Sharp]

So I'm wondering if you guys have bought anything from this company before. I'm asking because they have injectors for quite cheap ($169 for a set of 1000cc injectors). They don't seem like your typical wang-hung-low Chinese knockoff site. They are based in the US, provide a 1 year warranty, and are ISO certified. Apparently they manufacture these injectors themselves as well.

Still, I'm a bit leery.

Thoughts?

Bump..... I just stumbled onto this as well, looks legit and worth a try for the price however a poor performing injector can cause chaos in a engine.

Yeah, I agree that they're probably worth a try for the price. We'll see how well they run e85. If I remember to, I'll post back here in a couple months when I have my car back together. If they make the engine lean out and grenade, I guess it will give me an excuse to get some decent internals haha.

I bough a set of the 1200's a few years back for real cheap just to try out. They were horrible to tune.

I'm not sure if they are selling the same product, but I believe they are Chinese knockoffs of Lucas and delphi injectors that a lot of guys on eBay are selling as well.

Good to know. It wouldn't surprise me if the actual flow rates varied a lot from injector to injector. However, they do claim that they manufacture and test these injectors themselves, so I don't think they would necessarily be exactly the same as what you bought. I might give them a call and see what their "testing" actually entails. If they do legitimate flow tests I'll be impressed. Though, my suspicion is that they just check to see if the solenoid actuates the valve .

I ran these injectors for the better part of the season last year. They seem to do OKAY. Nothing more. It's a get what you pay for deal. Car went 11.63 @123mph on e85 and fp3052.

That being said, they have never leaned out on me or put my engine in any danger. Tuning for Idle is a nightmare and customer support is worse.

My issue is, I am looking to replacing the injector seals. TRE was of no help whatsoever stating "they are just regular injector seals. We don't sell them, you can find them anywhere."

I assume they use the same size seals as the factory injector?

I'm pretty sure the seals for a DSM will work on any injector that is meant for a DSM. Can you try comparing them to see?
