Pod's

Postby Bad93Cummins » Sat Dec 26, 2009 7:57 pm

Well noticed their is a guy selling a set for $250 with 50,000 miles on them and say's they run great and nothing wrong with them. Are they decent injector's? Debating weather to get these and save some money or spend $370 on 5x12's. Just not sure if the pod's are worth the $250 or not.

Thanks

I thought about trying to nab them for the engine I bought out of Michigan.
Then again, I consider that engine more or less parts, too.

The price seems right on the injectors, for what they are.

If you are towing they may be a little hot and smokey.

You may be talking about my injectors. They have 5K not 50K. Anyways, they sold and I think the price was fair. As far as running them, I never saw higher temps towing or anything. They made good cheap power for what they were and weren't super expensive as a first set. Knowing what I know now I woulda just waited and bought my 6x18's and a turbo when I got the truck rather than move up the ladder slowly. I currently have no AFC and even with this amount of fuel they don' haze unless the temps are below 20F at idle, and they don't throw heavy smoke unless I really get into the throttle before the turbo spools. Of course, I can black out the sky when I want to as well but that is very rare...sort of.

I think you'll be happy with them. I was/am. We'll see what happens when the 18's go in...they may be a "bit" large. haha...

For that price you will like them, and like I said. If you run them fo a year and decide its time to upgrade you should have no problem selling them for what you paid. Dont forget that POD's love timing....
