Re: FIC or ID
Good thread...
I have tuned a bunch of cars with ID and FIC. Both are perfect. We personally use, sell and I am sponsored by Fuel Injector Connection. I met these guys a couple years ago and have been extremely happy with them.

At the end of day there is more than one person in the world that can properly machine a injector just like there is more than one good engine machinist, tuner, engine builder etc.....

Re: FIC or ID
great info....anyone have input on how long they have been running their injectors for? what type of fuel? How much of a difference do you see when running a 16 volt system vs a 12 volt system? Have any of you managed to "lock up" the injectors using very high pressures?

We are running VP Import and 12v.

In regards to fuel, I use E85 out of the pump.

FIC 1100cc x 4
Weldon 2015 Fuel Pump
FTW Orange Fuel
16v Lithium Battery
140psi base pressure
As you can see I am running some serious fuel pressure. I have not had any issues with the injectors "locking up." I would highly recommend these injectors to anyone.

Re: FIC or ID
Anyone have any examples of testing back to back id vs fic showing any power gains on the dyno?
Or possible id or fic vs another brand like rc?

Re: FIC or ID
i think they are the same injector, FIC and ID, they get them from the same place BOSCH but the ID's are flow tested in large batches and are matched up in groups that have the same flow rates unlike the FIC's.
that's what I've gathered

Re: FIC or ID
Niether actually make the injector. They do modify\flow\match them in their own way which is what makes the difference.Tuners usually dont make the engine managment but it still matters who tunes it right. They will both get the job done for the most part its the little driveability stuff and idle quality that is the big difference. I run id's without any complaints even with running them on Import which they arent even meant for.Still work flawlessly.ID's are my choice

Re: FIC or ID
You can see the difference when people do not flow them in larger groups. There is plenty of much cheaper injector companies that do not flow or do not flow them in batches.
