Default are RC injectors junk?

ive heard that some people think that RC injectors are junk but wanted to get some input form you FI who have the most experience with many different brand injectors. im not looking for the best injectors on the market but was wondering if these injectors are even worth buying used (pretty good deal) or if i should stay far way from them? with that being said i know the ID1000's are very high quality injectors which i ran when i was boosted, but even then i had some trouble with start-ups, many people blamed my tuner. i know the ID's are very nice but am looking at getting some RC's for a good deal and wanted to know if they are very reliable and streetable. any input would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys!

BTW they are saturated 550's!!!

I had RC 750s and they worked fine. For anything 750cc or less I wouldn't have any problem going with RC. For more than that, I would go with FIC (just as good as ID but cheaper). I have FIC 900s now and they are amazing.

Anyways, I really don't think there is anything really wrong with RCs. Only thing is that some of their higher cc injectors require a resistor box to be wired in since they are not high impedance. But thats not that big of a deal. More of an inconvenience than anything else...

They should work perfectly fine for you as long as they will work for your hp goals.
