im sure ive head some somewhere... but its a noticeable difference for the neons... the 19#'s i noticed nothing power wise and about the same with fuel mileage... they have 4 holes instead of one so better atomization...

I just installed the 789's (about 700 miles ago-quick trip to Cali) and I noticed all around gains! Best $30 I've spent!

I hate to say this... but I noticed no gains from the 784's in my 99. Fuel economy is still terrible, power may be a bit smoother, but its not much.

I even cleaned and tested them properly before I installed them.
Ultrasonic cleaned and everything.

Oh well. It was worth a try I suppose... can't help but be disappointed.

based on the chart, yes it will work, however you need a fuel pressure regulator (Chrysler #4418510) and a 91-95 fuel rail to take the FPR

I got some explorer upr/lwr intakes that i decast and polish then resell to the mustangers as an upgrade over stock. Its the same as a gt40 int but about 10 cfm less flow.

anyway i pulled like 5 of these out of the j-yard and i have prolly 16 or so injectors (have to check). they are the yellows. will these plug right in to my 99?

I too have been searching the hell out of this,but did not find much about 99 up.
thanks.
