Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

this was an emailed reply to my question about some injectors for my setup


Correct Inject Performance product line has been suspended.

Much to our disappointment, Tuner Toys has been forced to discontinue its
sales of the Correct Inject line of performance fuel injectors. Although
we have worked closely with the manufacturer to develop this injector line,
many customers have experienced injector failures in the past few months.
As a company focused on providing quality components at a reasonable price,
we cannot continue to offer this product line, given its quality issues.

thats to bad. i have the FIRST SET of 550s he ever sold.

they are now a collectors item, needless to say, 2 setups later, they still work awesome.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

Yea..my buddy has went through 2 sets of the 550's and is now using a set of 450's as his final replacement. That's too bad, those were a good deal if they would have held up :-\

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

they did hold up initially. for about 1 yr, i never heard of anyone having isues. my set is tip top.

ill start the bidding at 500 dollars

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

ive bought a set of 450's 1 of 550's, some 660's and some 850's. all but the 850's have gone in and are holding up just perfect.im craigs number one customer :8

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

I have a set of 660's that I STILL have not returned. Been sittin in the box for a few months due to 2 injector failures. I hope they will take them back I would hate to toss 220 bucks down the drain :(

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

You must have forgot who you were dealing with. Just email them. Craig's the most honest guy I know.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

Damn, you did forget about everyone in socal :P

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

Socal and trust don't go in the same sentence, but you know I got love foe da mikey mike.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

I didnt think you could sell anything here ???

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

holy mother i thought i was in classifieds for a second there ::)

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

i've got a set of 550's that are still in the box waiting for spring, should i not use them?

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

i just ordered some 450's and got the same e-mail back from them, but they also sent me a tracking number.. so i guess there on there way.. hmmm hope i get lucky and get 4 good ones :P

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

rc's are only 320 shipped these days, that's the way to go. i've tuned all sorts of different brand injectors, and the only thing i reccomend any more are rc's.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

ive went through 4 sets of 450s over the summer. each time tuner toys was awesome and always overnightd me new sets. its not there fault, they just sell, they dont make em

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

My injectors ---- out again, I had to send one off my last set back. Rc all the way

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

Too bad that they ended up being bunk. They were a good price. Oh well, at least he didn't just keep selling them.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

From how I heard it, they weren't all bunk, they just ended up being the "ford" of injectors. Too many reliability issues with the manufacturer.
Craig is actively seeking a new manufacturer and when he finds the company he's looking for, he'll once again offer great prices on those too. It's just a matter of time.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

i wonder if theres anychance hes gonna sell rc's. im in the market for dome 750's soon

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

Just like the Mc Rib sandwhich at Mcdonalds...All good things must come to a end.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

I remember a thread a little while back that someone on ebay was selling injectors, and in his desrcription was saying that tuner toys injectors were bad. Back then everyone was saying they were great and had no problems and made such and such power with them. What happened? :l

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

There was a guy on ebay that sells such and such injectors for ??? car (I don't believe it was even honda related) and in his description he posted "results" of a flow test he did with Craig's injectors. Injectors are this guys bread and butter, so it's hard to say wether he actually did what he said he did, or if he was just bashing the competition.
Plenty of people have used the injectors with good results. All it takes is for multiple customers to recieve a faulty injector and Craig's dropping them. Nobody said all injectors, nobody said they work and then they fail. The injectors have had one too many occurrances of showing up with one of the injectors in the set being faulty to be a coincidence, so they are dropped.

I don't speak for Craig or Tunertoys, but I know a little about the situation and I'm just trying to keep the facts straight.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

I'm saying where were all these people having problems with these injectors that are on this site when that first thread was active. :-\

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

Craig handles problems very efficiently when they arrise. When there are problems, the customer contacts the person they bought them from, then the company takes care of it, or drops the ball.

Unless the company drops the ball, you probably won't see a post for everyone that has a problem with something.
And again, not every customer with the injectors had a problem. A couple inconsistancies here and there and then action is taken to prevent it from happening again. In this case, it's drop the supplier alltogether, but it doesn't mean you're going to hear a months worth of complaints before this has to happen.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

He could have been like SSauto and just kept selling them since he's making money.....but he isn't. :y

I'm proud to say Craig is a fellow Arizonian. :6

WOW time flies. Its been longer than I thought. Craig has always been good. I am sure nothing was mentioned because they are a good company and like I said Craig is a stand up guy. Those of us, atleast me, never said anything bad about the injectors because we would not want to hurt Tuner Toys' name. By them removing the item that shows good business and I will continue to be a customer. Heres a copy of the some of the PM's. Sheesh august...I guess I dropped the ball on that one.

Biz,

Sorry for the delay in reply, just getting back from vacation.

Send us an active tracking number for the failed unit return package, and we will overnight you some replacements. This is odd that two would fail at once, I am concerned about that. Eager to see what the failure cause was.

Thanks from Craig, and sorry for the hold-up.

Did you want me to send all 4 or just the two known bad ones? They run fine up off idle but those two just wont open up at idle. I dont get it either. About an injector driver vs resistors. Any opinions on that?

We can do it either way. It would probably be better if you sent all four back, and then we can send you a matched set. Just get us an active tracking number for the returned set, and we'll send out the replacements. We have six sets in stock, so no worries.

Send an email to sales@tunertoys.com with your tracking info for the return package, along with name and shipping address, and that you are sending back failed 660s Honda Low impedance for replacement. Tha way we don't have to look you up!

As far as resistors, these injectors require them if you are using them in a high impedance car.

Thanks Bizzar,

Craig

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

damn now im kinda worried. last thing i want is an injector to fail at wot...is there any consistancies between failures? is it a sudden or slow failure? like they all fail at xxx miles or something? ive got about 8k miles on mine and havent had close to a problem. hell they worked better than the rc's i had previously

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

I am really dissappointed to hear this! I have just installed my injectors on Sunday. I haven't even started the car yet, and now I find out that these injectors are prone to failure. that really sucks. Oh well I guess...it's only money right?

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

We had 2 sets of "venom" injectors go out pretty much the same way the tunertoys ones do. I honestly dont trust stock injectors that have been bored out. I would highly recommend using RC injectors, ya they do cost a little bit more but they are worth every penny. From everything the way they are packaged/wrapped and how each injector has its indivudal flow rate printed out for you.. It kind of gives you a nice warm feeling inside when you see the care of how these injectors are manufactored. You can usually score sets on sale of 450/550/750's etc for around 275 shipped on HT.

I hope craig decides to go with them =)

^^ I'm with Stupid ^^

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

Craig is at sema right now, but from what I know the injectors that had a problem were known to show up not working, so if you have a set that are in good working condition I don't believe there has been a problem with them going dead out of nowhere.

Craig can give more insight though.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

i think i saw a set on the shelf at his house ;D

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

bringing this one back...but I think I just experienced my injector failure. #3 cylinder has gone dead. happened while sitting still at a stoplight, car just all of a sudden loses a cylinder. I've narrowed it down to either injector problem or compression problem. Since the car had not been beaten on just prior, I doubt it's a compression problem. I'm going to do a little more testing when I can to verify if the injector is/is not the problem.

I don't remember, but was there any type of warranty on these injectors? I'm probably going to just replace them with RC's if it does turn out to be injector failure.

Damn car sounds like a subaru right now.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

happened at a stoplight? You're 1 lucky SOB.

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

Send craig an email im almost certain he will replace them with his new injectors

Re: Tuner Toys injectors NO MORE
 

tell me about it. :y

here's what I did..
1. determined which cylinder was dead= #3
2. checked for spark from plug wire= yes
3. checked replaced plug with known good plug= still dead
4. removed #3 injector and swapped with #2 injector, re-installed #3 in #2 spot= #2 cylinder now dead but #3 good
5. cleaned up my mess and came in the house to write this about how I verified that my #3 injector has failed and thanked my lucky stars that it happened while at idle at a red light.
