    How is it noisy? Would you say it's worth bothering with? Or more for peace if mind? Can they be lightened and balanced like the good old mk2's etc or is that not wise?

    I was reading a post by Badger5 on Seatcupra.net and it mentions RS4 injectors are the wrong spray pattern for a 4cylinder, shows a pic too!

    Spray pattern is only one part of the bigger picture, even when they flow less ... D.I has its own sometimes strange needs.
    Loads high power TFSI engines use RS4 injectors in combination with an uprated HP fuel pump ( APR) and these were tested on a dyno

    I would like to see back to back tests with just the injectors changed.
