Does this PA guy tweak the injectors on his refurb jobs to turn my original Mazda (Nippon Denso) 550s into "like new" 720's? Didn't know that was possible? If it is, please shoot me his contact info, that would save me some coin!

I realized the guy on the other forum is charging a pretty steep middle-man mark-up for getting those core Bosch injectors serviced & shipped out, but then again I was under the impression you had to start with 720cc core injectors to refurb, which I don't have.
I'm confused.... I thought you said you were paying $215 to have 4 injectors serviced. I'm saying that's high. As you admitted, $25/injector is average. It's never a good idea to try to modify an injector. I wouldn't take a 550cc and try to make it a 720 by doing anything other than upping the fuel pressure. I would just buy new. If you don't want to spring for the ID's than everything else is pretty much the same as long as you stay within name brands. Hell, you could even get some drop in injectors from Marren Motorsports... although I will NEVER rec him again.

I've still got to get you that Denso number, sorry.
