TVT injectors
Installed the TVT injectors (Thanks, Anthony). Only had one problem, one o-ring had a thin spot and leaked like crazy, so I had to use an o-ring off the stock injector. BIG injectors, like the ones I used to use on the racing Audi rally cars in the 80's.........
TVT instructions say you don't need to use the clips, but I recommend you do -- getting the fuel rail back in with the substantially larger diameter and slightly longer new injectors, it helps to have them secure in the rail I think.
Also, use the bleed valve on the fuel rail (carefully, don't spray yourself and everything else with fuel) and it will start instantly and run fine right off the bat.
As I already have an ECU tune from InMotion, plus the slightly higher flow Mercedes V8 airbox & K+N's, and the Magnaflow, I do notice a change -- not much down low (but maybe a little better throttle response???), but it definitely pulls smoothly and strongly all the way to redline now. Can't wait to get it on the track...........

i noticed a big difference in mine.. i didnt use the clips or the spacers that came with them.. the spacers were too tall and did not let the injectors sit all the way down causing a leak.. very simple install if you know what you are doing.. make sure to get the fuel out of the rail before you go taking off your injectors.... it can get messy! lol
also a good tip'
spray some light oil on the o-rings to help when inserting the injectors. You will find they insert alot easier with a bit of lube

please hold back with the pornographic comments regarding my post guys lol
