yup.. I gotta call a dog a dog, even when I'm that dog.. nobody said being an idiot gave me a pass for being honest.. :-)

those 'red' OE injectors.. I should state here real clear- they are NOT 22#r's as everyone (including me) has believed forever.. they are 23.6#r's @ 43.5 psi.. they pump out even more @ 49psi..

and more confusion:

FiveO has the OE red injectors listed @ 22#'s.. for an 'upgrade' they have listed another injector by FMS, but if you chart THAT injector, it is only a 19# injector, though they are advertised as a 22#r..

it gets worse..

the injector that was shipped was not the 'black tip' injector the part number on the same page has specifies.. it was an entirely different injector all together.. the injector shipped was a listed (by the charts) 24#r @ 43.5psi..

so- to attempt to straighten this out- I'm going to be bold and say:

this page:
http://www.fiveomotorsport.com/product-search/?v=7608

has these injectors specifications dicked up..

THIS injector (OE) is NOT 22#.. it is 23.6#, and rated at 43.5psi.. the specs can be found on the chart here, and under the same p/n (0-280-155-934)...

THIS injectors advert is all jacked up.. the injector advertised is a 19# injector, and is far under qualified for the job.. The PICTURE, however, is NOT the same injector as the p/n (
XF2E-C4B), it is actually p/n XR3E, which is the FMS 24# injectors- and, curiously, what you want..

it's a little funny- and a lot strange- if you ordered from him as I did, w/o any knowledge of this, you would get the right injector/part.. BUT, you wouldn't be getting what you think you're getting..

the TWO big take-aways from all of this is: DO THE DANG RESEARCH, and THOSE RED INJECTORS ARE PUMPING 23.6#'s and NOT 22#'s..

I'm squared away now.. my trims are in order.. it appears my mileage will remain about what it was, but the PCM isn't struggling to trim it..
