Default Injector Install Question

I've just removed the pink injectors on passenger side and only one of them has a big rubber spacer on the bottom? The other one doesn't, is this right? Or have I dropped it?

Also are a set of injectors all the same? I've got a set of 650's to go in. Sent them to Lateral to be cleaned and flow matched. Came back in separate bags and 2 say 100 and 2 say 98 on the bag? Can I just put any one in any of the holes? Or are they specific?

Probably very much noob questions but I've never done it before!

Cheers guys

I had a set of 550's back from Mark last week, I think the different numbers on the bag relate to the flow matching?? But I put mine in in no order as there was no info to state other wise. As for the missing rubber is it still sitting in the manifold??

If I'm wrong about the numbers are to do with flow matching theory I'm sure someone will be along to correct me soon

Cheers mate. Yeah reckon ya right. Must be % flow achieved of something?

As for the rubber spacer I've concluded it's not required on all of them! The holes are different depths!

Passenger side done! Onto the drivers side!

Unless it was stuck in there like you say! That would also explain the shallower hole!

That doesnt sound right to me...

If you think about it logically why would subaru make them all different?

Yeah agreed. One of them must have stayed in the hole! I'll see what happens when I pull the drivers side ones out!

Keep track of where you fit which injector, as the mapper can map the car to compensate for the differences between the injectors.

No! Got the downpipe off and most of the turbo bolts off but then I needed a beer! After doing the injectors all day I'd had enough! I'm absolutely fooked now!

Was waiting all day for you to turn up to give me a hand! Even made you a cup of tea!

FMIC next, then headers and up pipe I think. I'm leaving the intake and turbo until last!
