More flow to intercooler is achieved by knocking teeth off of the wheels on your turbo.
Less restriction = more airflow. Ask anybody that knows the basics.
Hope this helps.
Index 1 injectors better than index 12s?

My CAR uses E85....you do PERSONALLY, curious to what hole you fill up thru.
Nvm, don't answer that
The one under the hood. Middle of the valve cover. Gets me a solid 5k per fill up tooMy CAR uses E85....you do PERSONALLY, curious to what hole you fill up thru.

It's like an after-burner when it flow-thru lubricates your turbo bearings, no need for a flame tune it's automatic torch out the back.
I can see that happening, what I’m getting at is the index 1s may have possible been manufactured w the internal filter and thermal compensating oil, and they got rid of it to cut costs, then eventually reverted to the original design on the index 12s after they realized they can’t be reliable without these said certain features. Never said 12s are cost cut. U guys seem offended by me stating a theory which is a very possible manufacturing error. but as u stated There is no proof, and this entire conversation is speculation anyways since There is no data on flow rates, updates etc. only first hand real world reliability issues and successes
I don't think anyone is upset.
But it would not,and should not, take 12 revisions to figure out that you need a filter from index 1 if that is even the case....just to cut costs and then not.
Redesigning and engineering another revision would increase cost, not the other way around.
I am sure lots of money got lost on other revisions, manufacturing, warranty, extended warranty, etc, far from SAVING money or cutting costs.
But as people have said b4, you like your index 1 and feel they are on par with index 12, have at it ! It's your car, and your injectors.

This.
13 revisions. How fucking expensive was that? 10 years 150k warranty free injectors + labor as many times as they fail. Holy fuck that must have been an expensive recall campaign. VDO did not save money and paid out for a serial defects that cost them millions. The likely were upside down on the entire deal at the end of the day. Remember they sold the Z4 w/ the n54 in 1016. Those injectors are still under the 10 year warranty. The bleeding has yet to stop.
I don't think anyone in this thread cares what rev injectors other people run. Just like IDGAF what oil you run, it's not my car. I do think people generally want to educate others about best practices, especially on a motor which gets trash talked about reliability and the injectors are one of the most unreliable and expensive parts of the engine to fix. Running older rev n54 injectors is not a best practice. Again, you do you.

You probably misunderstood the bloke.@carabuser said it helps keep the corrections in check
Don't he speak in only binary or someshit ?
Can’t hate on the man. He’s the talk of the town, everyone’s asking who tuned my car after I put a Walmart on that C6.You probably misunderstood the bloke.

Put a Walmart on that ass, love it!
I wish carabuser tuned n55's. I may bug him about it when the time comes
