You can change fuel management in 2.0 for more aggressive one. CB Performance have a good system to prove it.
914 with this mod. can beat early 911 hands down. I see it on every autocross.

914s with stock fuel injection can also beat early 911s at the autocross. I see it every time I go to one.

I'm sending off a set to Cruzin Performance for rebuild.....$12 ea. for cleaning and flow check. Sounds like a good deal to me.

Not too sure about the injectors, but I remember the billet fuel rail thread pretty well. 9xauto claimed huge horse power gains but they could never back up any of the claims. According to the website, simply adding their fuel rails and cranking up the fuel pressure to 50psi will give you "more aggresive acceleration" They do look pretty though.

I would personally stay clear of them, but I've had no experience with buying anything from them, so take that for what its worth.

wow, killer deal, let us know how they come out...if positive, I have a bunch of injectors that I'd like to send to get refurbed and tested...the knowing the flow numbers is great for stock (diagnostics) and for us using aftermarket fuel injection..thanks for link

Pretty much same price as Schucks on line "Parts America". I just bought 4 new bosch for my 1.7 for $91.00 ea.
I think we are just used to Pelican (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sheeplove.gif) us.

53 bucks below Bosch Jobber price? I doubt they're the real thing. The Cap'n

Just shot them an email to get the turn around time, and specifics. I'll let you guys know how it goes.

There was talk a while back that the ones in this price range were Brazilian made Bosch injectors. Some newbie named Brad claimed some spray pattern problems with the Brazilian ones IIRC.

If the pump would make 50 lbs, the injectors would leak........and at 50 lbs, you'd have a hell of time starting your flooded engine. Can you say RICH?

And the spray pattern wouldn't be a nice cone of fog, it'd be a flood. It starts deteriorating at well under 40psi, I can't imagine what 80 lbs would do. The Cap'n

Hey guys, I bought '73 2.0 injectors for $51.61 each , Bosch 280-150-019's, brand new. Last summer.
Autohaus AZ. 800-240-4620. AutohausAZ.com I remember their site had a great p/n search function, $8 total shipping, very quick.

Seemed a deal.

BTW, had my stock '73 2.0 D-jet on the dyno yesterday. It did 86 hp at the rear wheels. Seems decent for 120k miles and a set of rings. I'll post an excel file later, we did some interesting playing around with additional ballast resistance to tweak air/fuel.
