Default Where can I get injectors with the same pintle as Euro-R injectors?

I want to see about finding either a cheap source for Euro-R injectors (and cc/min rating) or a substitute that fits the manifold like the Euro-R injectors do.

If you know of a substitute, please post a pic so I can compare!

I belive i have a couple EUro R injector somewhere... they are quite different from any others .. I really wonder why honda did it the way they did. You should start by contacting a manufacturer, like RC

The hole isn't too small, the Euro-R injector has a longer tip.

I believe the S2000 style injector will work but I can't remember where I read that they should work, so don't quote me...

OMG I really can search still. I wasn't just hallucinating!
Big Parts microfiche for S2000:

Standard google search came up with this for S2000 injectors:

Euro R injectors (pic taken from this thread 3 years ago):

They look awefully similar IMO other than the possible spray pattern differences from the tip.

Yes, I am running RC 550´s in my Euro R, you just can not use the stock rubber gaskets, you need to seal them with liquid gasket, and then make a custum bracket for the fuel rail, so that you get the fuel rail in the right position.

I had to take the paint off the injector with sandpaper, to get to fit in the holes in the manifold.

its been a while, but i believe you have to drill out the holes so the injectors seat deeper in the manifold.

if you just make a fuel rail adapter you'll probably expletive up your spray pattern.

i never actually followed through with the modification, i just sold the stupid thing. there's better aftermarket choices out there now anyway.

The injector tips on my RC is in the right place, off cause after you portmatch the manifold injector area after the stock gasket.

Not running the stock rubber injector gaskets, also help to lover the injector about 5mm.

RC´s is working just fine.

gogunkergorilla, how do you figure there's better aftermarket choices out there for IMs??

i really would disagree with you on that one.... we all know that the S2 IM is a waste of money.... and the Blacktrax IM is debatable....

IMO the Euro-R is the only IM that has consistently proven itself to make power, no matter what the build
