To add to that. What the hell are the 300hp bosch injectors they are selling on there? For the 98. 5 to 02. Fire apparatus injectors?



I would buy the bosch ones personally. Havent heard anything bad about hp but why cheap out on one of the most important components. They are basically generic injectors.
 
Thats kinda my thought on them, but he's selling quite a few sets so I thought I would ask the question. Thanks.

Just because a part cross references to another, it doesn't mean it's the same quality. There are plenty of Fram filter P/N's that cross with Fleetguard P/N's but I'll give you three guesses as to which filters are on my truck (and the first two don't count). Bottom line, go with the Bosch over brand X. You get what you pay for.

I know there are TDR members running these. I reasearched them a while back and don't remember finding anyone that said they have/had problems with them. I never did put injectors in mine but you want to do some searches on the board to see what you find.
 
They Are Bosch "knock-off" injectors and are not genuine Bosch. They are supposedly MFG to spec, but personally, I would not take a chance. The genuine article isn't that much more.

I thought the price of Bosch injectors went through the roof last year? What's a set going for now anyway?

I wonder what part of malaysia "genuine" bosch injectors are made in?



I don't trust big corporate names at all. They invariably optimize profits over quality.
 
A set of 6 new Bosch 300hp injectors part number 0 432 193 635 for 98 1/2 to 2002 Dodge Cummins 24v diesel truck. These are NOT aftermarket..... They come with the o'rings and the copper gaskets. These NEW BOSCH injectors come with a ONE YEAR WARRANTY!







These injectors have been set to give you up to 40 to 60 more HP, better fuel mileage, and more torque. These BRAND NEW injectors have been set in matched sets for maximum performance by a Bosch dealer.







We are a FULLY EQUIPPED fuel shop with a wide selection of fuel pumps and injectors. We are an AUTHORIZED Bosch dealer and have worked in a fuel shop for 25 years.

There ya go..... smoke and mirrors
 
I bought a set of BOSCH 275 injectors on EBAY last year and I've been very happy with them. My pre-turbo EGT's (going from memory here) are around 1,000F max. I have an early Edge "3-light" fueling box, similar to the current COMP type box they now have but with 3 settings not 5. On level 1, I can still tow without going above 1,300F sustained.

*edit-added: I can reach 1,500F on the pyro in level 3, the highest setting of the EDGE with these injectors! But in level 1, it never goes above 1,300F.

Level 2 and 3 are for 'hot-rodding' around. I never use those settings for towing because it'll just break something or destroy my clutch. ;)



Overall, these injectors alone gave me as much of an increase as my EDGE box did on level 1 with the stock injectors.



There is a little more diesel smoke/soot, especially if the box is on 2 or 3 and it only smokes black for a few seconds until the turbo spools up. Then it's just a light haze once on boost.



My stock clutch has about 55,000 miles on it, most of that with the box and it's still going strong. I'm careful not to overpower it though because once you slip it bad, overheating it, it's gone.

Cold temps in the fall and winter are especially difficult because the intercooler is much more efficient with cool air. The extra power makes it easier to slip the clutch on cool/cold days.



To summarize, you can run 275s and keep your stock clutch.

Your EGTs will not damage the engine while towing.

The EPA will not send you nasty letters in the mail.



Here are some pics that I took while I was installing them:
