cheap injectors?

i figure my injectors are gone, so i have ordered some more. i found a place in vancouver b.c. that is selling me injectors with 30 hp increase for 320 us $ plus 100 core charge. this seems way to cheap. i have confirmed with the guy that the are for 03 3500 and that its not just the tips. not sure why i am complaining. what do you guys think about the $

I feel you get what you pay for.

Quality is like buying Oats,
If you want good clean oats, You have to pay a fair price.
However if you are satisfied with oats that have already been through the horse,
Well, They are a bit cheaper....

considering those injectors cost $450 new from Cummins.... I'd say you are only get the tips. You can get honed tips for $30 to $60 a piece which is likely what they will be selling you. If I were you, I'd be sure who it is you're dealing with and make sure they know what they're doing. I'm agree with Shakin..... you get what you pay for.

are they new injectors or rebuilt. That price is lower than any place else you can get them. You're either getting a good deal or some rebuilt injectors

Why do you think they are gone? Have you pulled them and had someone like DonM look them over or maybe Scheid? I would do that waaaaayyyyyy before I look at spending that much!!!

just got a phone call and hes gonna give me an even better deal, 872 total for these injectors. had him put me through to head sales guy. buddy is out to lunch as expected. total price, $4149 minus core chare $179 each. sounds better in a sick way. i definatly would like to have original injectors inspected to see whats wrong, but i cant wait no more. been 10 days no truck, no work. fass lp, no cure. from what i've been reading on another forum the 03 have been have no start issus, like mine. 4 guys plus, got new injectors and cured the prob. as for getting some from don, i need these things now. i will get them tomorrow from b.c.
hope this is the cure. anything i can do to inspect the old ones to see what may have been wrong?

From what I've heard about Piers.... they know what they're doing. They're pretty big in the diesel performance arena. You could call Piers and ask them what exactly you'd be getting. If they are new... yes, the price you were given is a very good one.

As it was mentioned though.... DonM @ Formula One would be the injectors to have. You have to buy them through one of his vendors. You would send your injectors to him and he would build them for you.

edit : 4K !!!!!!!! you need to call them back and tell them they've lost their minds !!!!
