    Need injectors for 325i 2.7i build ASAP

    Edit: found a set of rebuilt 17lb m50 injectors for the price of rebuilding e30 injectors. Thanks for the help everyone!


    I sent out my injectors to a forum member (MaksInjection) to get them rebuilt, but USPS lost them on the return shipping. In the meantime, Bimmerheads sent out my rebuilt cam'ed head today, and I need another set of injectors so I can get this 2.7i together.

    I would love to buy a set of rebuilt injectors, but no one seems to have them in stock at the moment (at least that I could find) so I will also consider a clean serviceable set.

    Let me know what you have! I need these ASAP, so I can send them out to get rebuilt and get back in time to build this 2.7i powerplant.

    Will 19lb Mustang injectors work for your setup?

      I've read very mixed results about using the 19lb injectors with stock engine management. At the moment, I am looking for stock m20 injectors.

        Well I have a set of 19lb injectors, and I was looking to buy a tuned chip from SSSquid tuning, which I've read they work like a charm.

          I already bought a 2.7i chip tuned for stock injectors since I HAD a set of stock injectors getting rebuilt. I'd rather find a set of stock injectors to make use of the chip I already have. Thanks though.

            I might have a set of stock m20 injectors that I'd plan to swap out for 17lb. I can check tomorrow at the garage.

              As a result I have my stock injectors left over and would consider selling them. They have 20k since I replaced the filters, orings and caps so ran fine pre chip. PM me if you still need a set

                Thanks for the response's everyone! I have a deal pending,as I am trying to arrange having them sent straight to MaksInjection to make the turnaround as quick as possible. I will update if/when that deal goes through, or if I am still looking tomorrow.

                  I have a deal pending, but if it falls apart, this sounds perfect, since it could save me having to send them to get rebuilt right away. I will let you know tomorrow!

                    Hey Andy! You should go with 17lb M50 injectors. The computer will compensate.

                      To be clear, mine are not "rebuilt", bench tested, flow matched etc. I installed a kit and they've been fine. Consider them "good used".

                      I'll make sure I have all the bits just in case you use them as is

                        Do you happen to sell those at bimmerheads? Or have a good lead on some? I saw sssquid sells 19lb sets, but didn't have 17lb sets listed.

                            Awesome. I missed those earlier in my search. It looks like he has the 19lb injectors listed as an option under e30's, and the 17 lb injectors only under e36's. I ordered the last 6 he had in stock.
