IIRC, the siemens ones are quite fat, instead of skinny like the bosch ones. If so, I believe they are from a N/A car and don't flow as much as the bosch ones.

Happy to be corrected tho :D

Might be worth getting new O-rings before fitting - just to make sure.

There is no difference between the blues and whites unless you run the blues at 3.8 bar.

I beleive greens need to run at 3.8 bar as well ore they don't atomize properly.

but your car isn't running close on 400bhp, so blues would work just as well on yours.
