I suspect the quality is first class, these have been used in holland for a few years by some championship winning rallycross cars.
Been speaking with the guy who makes them for some time now, I'm looking at bring a few over if anyone is interested?
Would be awsome on a turbo'd motor

They look quite long, are they?
Also, why is the injector before the TB?

The further away the better from the valve for high rpm to let he fuel mix better with the air

The Titan Motorsport ones are nicer than those and cheaper, they look a bit 'Blunk'... the annodising makes them look a bit 'cheap' really.

but on a closed throttle, wouldnt that rather fuck things up a bit for idle?

I didn't design or make them but the fact there being used on championship winning cars in Europe for several years now speaks volumes to me
I see your point about idle though

Im guessing idle and very light throttle isnt an issue for the rallycross cars, and with the right setting they idle a bit and move if they have to at light throttle, so that will do.
Might be a pain in the arse on the road though.

The injector is not that far away from the head some race cars have them alot further.

It's actually not always a case of "more rpm = further distance away" for the injector..

Dyno testing has proven that on some engines you get higher MBT above a certain rpm by moving the injector back towards the valve. I've only seen this happen on motorbike engines though, so not sure if you'd ever get to that level on a typical car engine.
