Default Sourcing Fuel Injectors

Hey all,

Where can I get some fuel injectors for the M44? It seems like every place either doesn't carry them, or doesn't have them in stock?

I've read somewhere here that people have used M3 injectors?

I need to pass smog, and I have a clog that is causing me to fail the 15mph NO test. everything else passes with flying colors. Theory is partially blocked injector.

Thanks,

tbw

Well I have another set of injectors that I would love to rebuild, but I don't have the time and need to get my car smogged.

The car is running fine as-is... great, in fact, it just doesn't pass the 15mph test.

So I'm looking for a new or rebuilt set immediately to pass smog.

In case anyone else ends up in this same boat:

www.witchhunter.com

$19 per injector, flow tested, rebuilt, then flow tested again, and you get to see the before and after results. Pretty sweet!

That's cheaper than the last set I had rebuilt. Nice!

What kind of math are you doing?
First of all, the injectors are at five o motorsports are $50 fir 1 set of 4. Check the link.
And 50 x 4 = 200 dollars.

1. Why would the two quantities listed as available be 1/set and 4/set? Who orders 4 sets of fuel injectors? Take a look at the BMW injectors page:

http://www.fiveomotorsport.com/fuel-injectors/bmw

the pricing is around $40-50 an injector.

2. Five-o motorsports made me think of mustangs. Screw mustangs, I'm a chevy guy.

3. If the pricing were $50 ea, it would make perfect sense that a set of 4 would have a slight discount. hence $180.
