Injector Nozzles

Any one ever heard of injector nozzles for a 7.3L. Found a guy that sales them wondering if they help at all. Little cheaper than injectors are and theres no core.

I don't think they have any advantage on a stock injector. the nozzles are just the tip of the injector with very tiny holes in them. with a higher flowing injector the nozzle is changed out to a larger hole unit.

nah the only reason to have larger nozzles is to flow more fuel than the stockers will

Well the reason I asked is we put some in my friend's Cummins and it made a huge difference for him I would guess 75-100 rwhp. I have seen them for a PSD before, just happen to run accros them again.

I dont really like buying this sort of thing off ebay, but it caught my intrest after installing the ones on my friends cummins.

your gonna need more than the nozzles to feel a difference.
if you really wanna do something to your truck just buy the diy kit.

if you do just the nozzles and no other work it will probably run like crap.


common rail / huei not apples to apples....
