Cruzin' Performance = Best!

Talk about a great company! I talked to the owner, Rich Jensen, about sending in my spare set of 2.8 injectors to be flow-tested, disasembled, cleaned, and re-assembled with new o-rings and screens. I sent them out, had them back in under a week-- and that's from NJ to MI!

I also asked him to make me a "matched set" of injectors. After his flow-test, he determined it wasn't necessary, because he was able to clean the injectors up so they were within 2% of each other!

All told, I would've been able to buy only 1 new injector, for what Rich charged me to service my 6.

He's a great guy to talk with, too- I had a problem with my car, and I thought I might've mis-installed an injector. He read my e-mail, and told me that the symptoms I had couldn't have been caused by an injector. He also said that if it was my fault with an injector, I would've been having the problem right away.

And yes, I noticed one helluva set-of-the-pants improvement between my 14 year old, 207,000 mile injectors and the cleaned set!

Thumbs up! The website's http://www.cruzinperformance.com , check it out!

Yeah two thumbs up for Rich. He was very speedy the best prices around and understanding when my check bounced.... But I have fixed my end and I would do buisness with him over any other company.

To bad they don't flow match TBI injectors. Oh well, I guess I will get the cleaning thing done though.
