Great customer support and prices are some of the best that I've seen in the community.
Minspeed only sells JCW 380 injectors, no brand X here! AND at a great price w/ quality service.

All me to humbly clarify these are the exact same injectors that you get when you buy from JCW. They are not drilled out or an unknown brand.

PS - I am not making any comparison to what you offer, just clarifying what Minspeed carries.

last time I checked.... Bosch wasn't an unknown brand

and NEITHER HELIX OR RMW sell "drilled out injectors" (they are crap) and I am being nice about calling them CRAP

Not implying that you or helix sells crap, simply clarifying what Minspeed sells. Nor that Bosch is brand X.

Simply stating the fact that Helix WONT jerk you around...why waste time reading into things that aren't there?
