Hey guys, I'm looking at upgrading my injectors and just wondering if PWR are a decent brand. To be honest, I haven't heard much of them, but apparently they use injectors made by Denso? Doesn't Denso supply a lot of OEM injectors? That should mean it's ok, yeah?

The reason I'm asking is that I have been waiting 2 months for my Nismo 600cc injectors to ship from Japan without success. The workshop has 700cc PWR injectors (I believe TL700) in the garage that are ready to go, and asked me do I want to go ahead with these (they are actually cheaper). I don't think they need to modify the fuel rails or anything - I believe it's a direct fit.

Thanks.

Power Enterprise are very high quality. Equal to or possibly better than SARD, HKS etc but no evidence to prove that of course. I spoke with Power Enterprises a few days ago at AutoSalon and saw some of their other products including the injectors. They have the injectors made to their spec by Denso so manufacturing quality is second to none, as far as development goes, they have an extremely good name in injectors.

PWR ENT also do Kevlar Timing belts which are 700 times stringer than factory belts. Just in case you were wondering.

How much are these PWR 700cc items worth out of curiousity?

I have also heard good things about PWR stuff. Good quality with reasonable pricing.

Ask R31Nismoid, he's a forum trader so he'll be able to get you a good price on them

rubbish...they are all made by Denso...no brand is better than the other. P.E. were blowing smoke up your arse saying that they get them specially made to their spec.

Heller44 you are spot on my friend.

When I checked the denso part number on my 700cc sard's the same number corresponded to P.E. and a couple of others as well.. Looks like more putting a new box around the same product.

This is old news. Denso have always made injectors for a large number of different companies but each company can specify design characteristics if they wish.

Which is what I said. They are made by Denso for P.E to P.E specs.

Pintle cut angle, travel distance and impedence are just a few things that can be changed when designing an injector. I never said P.E is better. I said possibly better. That all depends on the application it's used in and the characteristics put into each one. Not all injectors are just an 'off the shelf' denso item. While companies like HKS may be happy with the design Denso is using for their off the shelf item, they may not and want to make some changes based on their research.

I can email Denso to confirm this if you really want me to.

How much do they sell for?

Im about to sell a set of sard's (700's) and wouldnt mind knowing whats a fair price to put on them :P

If they are in good nick and not too old you should be able to get $500-$600 for them only because it will cost $1000 for new ones. When the dollar gets better you might only be looking at around $400

if you could do that that would be great.

Ok I called Power Enterprise in Japan first but no one spoke english there so I called them in the USA. Please go here http://www.powerenterpriseusa.net/products...ector/index.htm and read the top of the page. Co-produced with Denso EXCLUSIVELY FOR POWER ENTERPRISE

I am still waiting for a call back from Denso Australia on an english speaking contact from Denso Japan who I can email. Would you like more proof or are you happy to accept that I am correct?

I would prefer you fly the Japanese dude over so I can have him tell me to my face that they are different before I believe any of this waffle.

Where do you get off taking you information from a company's corporate display at Tokyo Auto Salon?

Sheesh.

you have come up with nothing...what have you proved?

it actually says co-produced with Denso (denso make the injectors PE the packaging and marketing)...exclusively offered by Power Enterprise. Its clever wording Daniel..all PE need to do is make the box they come in and they can say co-produced...easy way to make people think they are getting something better...when actually its the same thing everybody else is producing. I have friends in marketing who tell me this is an old trick they use all the time when competing against an identical product.

ill buy a few of each and test them to make my own opinion. I would never believe a sales/marketing jibe as gospel...and only a fool would. These clever marketing campaigns suck some people in as it improves the companies market share in these tough times.

I bet the 700cc units are identical in spray pattern and flow to the SARD 700cc units.

What's to say SARD don't use a similar or the same design for their injector?

I will get confirmation from Denso as it is clearly the only way to convince you. All I am saying is they are not just an off the shelf Denso Injector. They may be the same as a SARD or HKS in their design but you wouldn't know unless you pulled them both apart. Spray pattern will only tell you half the truth and only a fool would believe that a comparison of spray pattern was going to reveal anything conclusive

      Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
