Default C4 Injectors

To any of my C4 brotherin that have though about upgrading to bosch III injectors, JUST DO IT. I had been thinking about getting the Bosch III's from Fuel Injector Connection for my LT-1 for almost a year now, and with the economy, just didn't want to spend the money. I finally had a little extra and bit the bullet.

WOW, is all I can say. The idle is a TON smoother, the throttle is crisp and she just drives...much better than even when she was new. Now for the kicker. On my best day driving to work and getting the absolute most out of my MPG, I got a best of 16.8 (over the past 3 years). Today, driving normal but no hot dog stuff, I got....wait for it.....wait for it....18.8! That's a FULL 2 MILES PER GALLON increase and not even in the same driving style. Now, I may have had a bad injector, two at the most, but still. This is an investment worth sinking your money into!

Check out Jon over at Fuel Injector Connection and get your C4 driving better than new today!

Just the stock replacements 24lb. You won't need more than that unless you have engine mods that require more juice.

I've been looking at at least $400 for a set. What's the catch? And did you install them yourself?

Yep installed myself. Took all of 45 minutes from setup to tear down. The ones I got are rebuilt, but Jon stands behind his products. I've yet to hear of any issues from the tons of fellow C4 owners on the corvetteforum that have been using these over the years. I knew I should have done this mod a long time ago.
