Has anybody heard of anybody using Bosch injectors vice RC or Precision? There's a guy on H-T that can get 330cc's for $155. My stockies are at 100% so I need to pick up a set of something a little better before it goes to jack for tuning.
Steve why dont you run OEM prelude injectors?? They should handle the job just fine.. Thats what was in my 97 with BC spec 3's tuned by Jack on Power FC.
How much do those go for? Right now these bosch's for $155 seem like the best deal.

You can find them used or in a junk yard for a decent price, plus they are honda... I would put up a post on og HT and see if anyone has a set laying around or better yet a post with a whole manifold and see if they will part with the injectors for supa cheap

I didn't even notice the transmission until I started looking at the detail photos. Looks snugger in the back than I would have expected.

BMW likes their 3-series wagons. A lot :roll:

Dewd, I don't know what the problem is, but I routinely get 28mpg on the highway in my CL-S. Unless your 17mpg is strictly downtown driving, it just don't make sense.

Maintenance chitl? CPO sez it's covered for 6yr/100k mi. Don't know if that includes the new-car free maintenance stuff or not though.

My problem would be selling it in a couple of years. Since I'm one of three people who would possibly consider a manual wagon, I'd have to track down one of the other two and make them a deal.

The CPO warranty and ext maintenance are two different things. The dealership will probably off it to you. It's a steal if you use the dealership for routine stuff (oil changes, belts, brakes, etc) but a rip otherwise.

I don't think you would have trouble selling... I think there are more than 3 people in the US that would love to have it.

Just buy and drive till ~125k miles then unload it (that is when stuff will start to get expensive and drips will start) in a few years for ~$12k. AKA: profit?
The fact that is a rare bird = worth more when it is time to sell it.

The only issue I see is which one of you would drive it. ;)

I would love to have that beast and would sell the Pilot to get it... but 93 octane = $$$ / BMW = $$$
Me = Honda fanny boie :lol:
