  • I think my next step will be the balanced injectors.
    How much is he charging for that service?

      • thats not too bad.
        what all is involved does he simply clean them.
        or does he flow test them and enlarge each opening barely to flow the same?
        i havent heard the process explained.
        maybe ill ask him next time on the phone.

          He cleans them and ensures that they emit fuel in an even spray, and all injectors matched for flow rate.

          • I have the header and had him clean and flow match my injectors. When I got my injectors back they flowed within 1/10th of each other and they looked brand new. Matt also has pics and a video on his facebook of himn cleaning injectors if you are curious as to what is involved.

                  for $340 its a great deal.

                  wondering what kind of feedback people may have if they have installed one yet by itself?
                  ive talked to matt so i have a good idea on what to expect.
                  i would like to see what peoples butt dyno is telling them.
                  I ordered one with a cam back in May, I'll let you know when I get it.

                      Why the long wait? I thought he had these ready to go.

                        Depends. For me he needed an Aspire cam to alter, which I sent him.

                          He says he fills orders on a first come, first served basis and he has a backlog of orders from all over the world. I sent him three cams so he'd have plenty. The last ship date of two weeks is over Wednesday, that'll be three months exactly. I'll let you know.

                          • I sent Matt a B6 Head, intake with injectors, and B3 roller cam, to be welded up and reground, prior to May.( I also purchased and have received a FPR which I have installed on the B6 in the Smurf car.) I have seen some of my stuff on the Dickmeyer website, as having been worked on, to include the header, but I have not received any of that as of yet; so I can not report on performance results. I jumped on the project after looking at he stuff he was doing for Jeramie's B3.

                            I have paid the bulk of the bill. I am waiting for a final total so I can "square up with Matt" and hopefully get all of the parts that I have in the works installed so that I can make a report. I am going to have the current B6 (with Tracer 5 speed) put on a dyno before and after I install all of the parts. I will file a report as to the results at that time.

                            • I'm still waiting too. Paid on July 2. Hope nothing's happened.
                              Any difference that makes no difference is no difference.

                              • He's just very busy.

                                When I called him recently he was just swamped with orders.
                                Not much time to talk.

                                Plus the first come first serve thing is only fair.

                                You know you won't get put on hold for a project that came after you.

                                But also you have to wait for your turn.


                                I haven't really had any shops I could trust.
                                Dickmeyers shop is the first
                                And I'm gonna stick with him
                                For the rest of my modifying needs.
                                He offers high quality work for fair prices.


                                he's worth the wait.

                                Patience is a virtue right :-)
