I have had no experience with them but when I needed to replace mine I asked on here and everyone said to stay away from them.

I just installed a set of Accel 24 lb injectors, and my car runs great. You don't want the yellow ones (old style) make sure you buy the newer ones.

I am happy w/ the choice of the Accel's ($280.00 from Summit), many will say that the Ford injectors are the best, matter of opinion.
What year is your car? any mod's? What size injectors are you looking to buy? If your not sure, do a search for threads on injector sizing and installation.

BTW, you should fill out your profile, helps us to help you if we know what year/mods done to your car.

I just installed FMS (denso's) today they're rated 22.5 lbs @43PSI. Great direct replacement for a stock L98 (no AFPR or retune). I got a set of 8 flow matched (reconditioned) for $199.92 from www.Injectors4u.com. Owner is Howard Haack, highly recommended. FMS part # FF5-A2D/E. Contact # is 989-644.2695.

This is from a previous post, I forget who but I purchased the same set and I am very happy with them!
Good Luck!
Enjoy the Ride!
