Wise to get a reference like that.
I suspect there may be some fraud out there when it comes HPCR injectors. I haven't had any problems with Cummins injectors, but I got sold a set of bad Sprinter injectors off ebay. They came in boxes that looked semi-legit, but they were total junk.
The second set I got from a reputable place came in much fancier boxes. I was not allowed to leave the shop with those boxes. Bosch demands the boxes back, and I assume that is to control counterfeits.
Bosch and Mercedes are partly to blame for me looking to ebay for bargains. When they charge $600 or more for a $300 injector they are stealing more than the guy who sold me garbage for $200. You get what you pay for, unless you buy it from a car dealer.
