I contacted injector dynamics about my warm start problems and they asked me to send them in for free testing... after testing they found my set did leak very slightly and they offered to replace them for free. I should have them back in the car in a week or so and will post my findings.

Yes, I have an update.

Unfortunately, the new set of injectors they sent me have the same warm start issue. Doesn't matter what settings I've tried on the tune.

This is my daily driver so I can't afford to have the car down for several weeks again...I'm doing research now but will switch to another brand.

Anyone want to buy a "like new" set of ID 1000s?

How could this be? Well at worst according to the forums both on evom, and others; it's been proven to be a stock ECU issue. So why not move forward on a aftermarket ECU? I know they are expensive but since all I have to do is continue to start my ride with my laptop through ECUFlash, I'll just get use to it. But dam, have you tweaked all possibilities or have st popped them in and kept the settings the same?

You are breaking my heart with this news....

On what forums has it been proven that its a stock ECU issue? It can't be the Evo ECU. We've got full control over fuelling during startup with the stock ECU.

I stand corrected. What about the SD converted ix rom which seems to have no startup issues on ID1000. Think the JB confirmed...? I'm so hoping there's a cure.

Fixed is a relative term. The issue can be lessened by shutting down all fueling during warm/hot cranking. Don't get caught up in the notion that the ID1000s are the best 1000 cc/min injector ever made. There are many good 1000 cc/min injectors. Look in my sig to see what I've been running for the last two years. I'm one picky SOB.

mrfred, did you have problems with the id1000 before going with the 1100s.? do the 1100s not have this hot start issue?

I tried two sets of (brand new) ID1000s, and both had warm start issues. This was a few years ago before ID finally believed there was an issue and was said to have fixed it. They may be pompous, but I wouldn't have expected them to say it was fixed if it wasn't, so I'm a bit surprised by mchristian's experience with a set of ID1000s that presumably were recently fabricated.

FIC1100s = zero hot start issues with no tweaking of the factory startup fuelling tables. No warm start issues either. The only startup fueling that needs tweaking is for E85 and IATs below about 70F.

I'm still working with Injector Dynamics to see if we can isolate my issue...they're willing to send me another set. ID's service has certainly been motivating to invest more time/help solve for the benefit of everyone.

I'll circle back when I have more info.

Any updates? I was thinking about getting ID1000s. Should I just go with FIC?
