I have been eyeballing these injectors since I heard about them. I'd love to hear some information from some shops/tuners with experience on these.

I have the FIC1050's, and the Blue Max injectors are suppose to be better than even their old 1050's I believe. The FIC1050's are an excellent injector, and I am sure that there are a lot of people from the ECUFlash forum that will tell you that, me being one of them.

As far as the flow pattern, well the 1050's were awesome, so I can imagine if the new Blue Max are the same or better, then it is an excellent injector.

We've had two sets come through the shop so far. I was never a huge fan of previous FIC injectors but the new BlueMax seem to work really well.

One set are 1450cc on a E85 HTA35R Evo 8 making 557whp on stock maf and stock Ecu

Another set are 1250cc on a CBRD BBK Full Turbo E85 Evo 9 making 447whp on stock maf and stock Ecu.

Drivability on the 1450cc's seem to be great. I'm still working a little on some startup stuff with the 1250cc.

Mustang dyno.

And like GST's comments, I am running E85 only through my 1050's.

If they are the same as the rochester/msd/pe injectors I dislike them.

Yes the "other" FIC injectors are rochester based but the BlueMax are different style bodies, etc.

Older rochester style:



New BlueMax style:



Thank you STM for having photos of both.

Double.

Singles max out around 470whp on our dyno on that type of turbo.
