There really is no good way besides installing them and verifying they work properly. Only other option might be to ohm them out and make sure the coils are good.

I dont see why not. Those things should be relatively cheap brand new. Why take the chance?

The RC550cc injectors are some of the worst ones that they offer.. Do yourself a favor and save your money elsewhere, get the Injector Dynamics injectors and don't look back.
