Delpi does a lot in India. They are the electronic injectors.

The argument is that if they have the same latest manufacturing equipment, they should be able to make them!!

Down here we like to get drive train parts for earth moving equipment out of the USA as the steel is tougher. The European stuff is case hardened a lot but the base metal is C##P. Once you break the surface, there is no strength. The same goes for Asian/ Chinese stuff.
