Bottom line is, new injectors are better that old injectors and FIC is the place to get 'em. Deal with it.
You haven't even read this thread based on your remarks. I never said old injectors are "better" than new. Read the thread and don't act like such an unwashed redneck.

Haha, whatever you say, chief. I'm gonna file this one under "not worth my time."

Jon: Thanks for a great product at a great price and great service.

So I just replaced my injectors, bought from Jon. I guess I drank the Koolaid too huh?

Huh, I'm getting much more response from my throttle.
I'm getting better mpg's, problably enough to pay for the injectors in 13 months by my math.
My idle is much smoother.
So, my only question is, is where can I get another glass of the Koolaid?

Ditto.

Thanks guys, glad everyone's happy. I must say that out of all the Forums that we sponsor, this is my favorite, for the most part we help each other, offer good suggestions, and truly care about each other. But, when someone like BadDuck comes on and constantly offers childish, stupid keyboard mechanic statements like the ones in this and many other posts, it makes this forum look low class. I'm sure there are new members lurking around here that think we are sometimes total assh*les, IMO I would like to see this kind of garbage stop has it is not conducive to any of our final goals. We are mostly mature grown adults. So, BADDUCK if you have something to say about our products or our service please come to our shop and pay us a visit. Please stop the stupid remarks as I, and probably everyone else is sick of it.

I understand exactly what BADDUCK was saying, and agree it could've been gone about in a little nicer way.

On the other hand, I've heard nothing but good things about FIC and plan to get in touch with you guys when I'm in the market for some new injectors. Old stuff on old cars goes bad, so I figure why not replace it with something new and improved, it just seems to make things better.

I'm not trying to put anyone down. But, I'm amazed that some people believe that their Vettes are somehow magically transformed with a new set of rebuilt injectors.

Our Vettes are supposed to start right up and run smooth. Our Vettes are supposed to have smooth acceleration and a steady idle.

When I see someone say: I used to pump the pedal 20 times and hold it to the floor just to get it to start. Then I bought rebuilt Bosch.............. and OMG!!!! it starts right up and it goes when I press the pedal! I mean it's so funny.

A set of 20 year old clogged injectors willl make your car run like crap.
Jon sells good rebuilt injectors and has excellent customer service. That is a fact. But let's get real.

I think someone assumed the OP was bashing the stock injectors, when he was just giving props where they were deserved, and it turned this thread into nothing but people repeating what everyone already knows.

If you reread the first few posts, there was only one person who said anything about the Multecs being crap. There was nothing said about any magic Kool-aid or transformation. Just merely a post about replacing a set of injectors that fixed a lot of issues.

IMHO, from the videos I've seen posted by Jon, I would purchase some BOSCH III injectors if I had any means of trying to get a leg up against the guy next to me, whether it's at a stop light or strip.
