I ran DW 650's on mine for 4 years when I owned my STi. No problems!

Funny you say that. They still use OEM injector cores for everything under 1000cc and those generally run fine. The 1000cc and 1300cc injectors are built on new cores and are the ones that have issues. In general, ID injectors are much more consistent and reliable. I really only use DW for sidefeeds these days because I haven't found a better option.

Interesting. Looks like I was partly right. LOL!

For the most part I haven't heard too many bad things about their smaller injectors. I'll probably run whatever I can get my hands on in that area when I do the 18g. I'd probably prefer the ID but I'd run the DW no question.



Oh... meant to say this earlier... that follow up post you made. The long one. That was more what I was looking for. Information. The first one... the short one... those are kind of pointless. More like what a lot of the other people are doing. I think what he was looking for was information... and for me personally... I'm an info nerd so your last 3 posts have gone in to my memory banks.
