PTE vs Denso injectors

upgrading from stock turbo to fp green. looking at injectors and wanted to know if the denso's are better performing than the pte injectors. i've read the oem injectors are made by denso so would they be a better option than the pte's?

I think its all personal preference, they're both great injectors...i don't think you can go wrong with either. Maybe ask your tuner what they prefer...mine said FIC's were really hard to dial in and PTE's were quite a bit easier...hope this helps!

I am also curious about if Denso injectors are significantly better than other style injectors. The Denso 720s are about $440, bit FIC and Precision are about $270.
It seems like a no-brainer but I wanted to see if anyone else has an opinion.
Thanks

Only took two shots at scaling my Precision 680's in, last night. After putting a little oil on the rings, no leaks at all. I think I paid $269 shipped.

Your best choice is to contact Paul at http://www.yawpower.com and get injectors from him. He sells Bosch injectors, same stuff PTE and RC put their stickers on but at a much lower price. If you are serious you can have him flow test them and give you complete data on them so you can compensate for any differences between them in your ecu. ~5% differences between all 4 injectors is common, when you tune for maximum power it's very dangerous to have the cylinder inject different amount of fuel..

Go with what you prefer. I prefer PTE because I work closely with them at work and they are excellent on service.
