The stock reed valves are designed by boyesen.

Why would you throw something away that is better than what you put in? All without even trying it first.

Reeds are something to spend money on when you have nothing left to spend money on.

Look on fleebay for some stock ones.

Did they change from 11 to 12? or 13? I know my stockers were shot on my 11 at 2500km's and the next 5 sleds after mine were shot too (during the piston update). If there was a change, see if you can get the latest update.

Sorry but I had to try somthing else in my etec because the stock junk reeds only last 500 miles.
Apperently rtek is making a reed that will last in the etecs.

Are you ingesting a combination of sand and water in your engine? Lol. The stock reeds last longer than 500 miles.
