Now that they have been out a while, anyone with new style Accel injectors?

All the posts I found on this subject were about a year old when they first came out....so now that the cheaper ($230) Accel injectors have been out a while, anyone have any experiences to share with them?
Thanks

I guess doing a search on 'Accel AND injectors' is out of the question?

There's another thread on this same page about Accel injectors, same exact question.

Sure, we're here to share info, but gawd it gets old with the same old stuff that's been covered repeatedly...and clogs up the board with repetitive info instead of new stuff.

"What's the best hedders?????" (bad grammar and misspelled headers for accuracy)

"Should I use a HOT cam?"

"What do I need to burn chips?"

"How hard is it to convert MAF to SD?"

"How much are SVO injectors?" ($219.95 at summitracing.com)

I wasn't aware there was a new style out. I guess that's what I have since I got mine about 6 months ago.
check https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...hreadid=134691
that's where I posted my opinion.

I run the injectors you're referring to (I think) They are the yellow bodied ones that are around $230 a set right.
Those are what i have.
I am running 24#ers and have no complaints. You can get them in 19 and 22 and larger sizes too, check summit.
Great for the price.

I just got the 19# ones about 4 months ago, and haven't had a complaint. I can't compare them to stock though, because they went in with the TPI conversion.

It's funny that people on bulletin boards always have the time to repeatedly pi$$ and moan about redundant topics, rather than repeat what they said before about the topic. Kind of ironic, ain't it?

Yeah, you're right. What pressure are the Accels rated at? My car won't start, what's wrong with it?

Yea, of course I did a search, all of them where a year or more old when this sytle first came out. Guess you can't read either since I already stated I did a search in my original post. This isn't a "which injector is best for my setup"? which there are hundreds of those topics. I want to know how people feel about these particular ones now that they have been on the market for a while. Talking about clogging up the board, what do you think your doing by making 3 replies on here gripping about the sos. If it gets old for you, then quit replying, pretty simple.

And BTW, I see the post you are referring to, again, learn to read, it appears that this post was posted before that one, so it did not exist when I posted this.

Thanks for all the replies on topic. Appearently Accel changed manufacturers about 2 years ago and these are of a new design and manufacturing costs are cheaper for this design. You have the new ones if your have the # rating stamped on the yellow top. There are no 22#ers though, they can in 19, 24, 26, and 30# for under $250, $230 for 19 and 24#s from Jegs and Summit, or you could spend doulbe that for a set of MSD's if you can find someone that sells them.
