    Hey I'm looking at getting a set of new injectors. Since you seem to know whatyou're talking about with the rx8 ones I figured you'd be good to ask. Anyway I'm looking at the 450cc Denso (stock rx8) ones from 949. However I was also looking at just getting a set of remanufactured rx8 ones from rock auto. Is there any reason you could think of to not get the remaned ones? 949 claims 450cc/min at 3bar(48ish psi) and since the NB's run at 60psi stock that would mean its flowing about 530cc/min if they are 450 or 500cc if they're 420s. Sorry for the incredibly long message but I've been thinking about this all day, and I just can't see the point of spending like $100 more if I can get remanufactured ones that'll work just as well.

    P.S. just noticed this wasn't a pm. Sorry about that.
