If you have a massive powerful motor and your put better injectors on it you will notice this fine tuning but i have been told again and again there is no such thing as cheap power.

I don't know sorry how long they are supposed to last but i just replaced them because i thought they weren't working because i didn't find the computer diagnostics for a while.

They cost be $260 from Repco and i had to hand in my old ones

I called around a few places during the week for a price on servicing my injectors. The going rate is about $30 per injector. That includes before and after flow testing, new filter basket, pintle cap and o-ring.

I had the injectors serviced in our 91 Laser a few years ago because it had no go in it at all. Cost me $80 all up but that's because someone knew someone... Servicing the injectors turned that car into a rocket.

Well if that's what you want to do then don't let my opinion stop you.
I can't really test to find the difference as i am on my Loser plates still. lol So i can't thrash it to find out but it's replaced now and i know when something else go's wrong it's not them which is less painful for me.

You can give it a go but just get restored ones and replace them don't worry about trying to find bigger better ones i don't think they will make a difference.

I got quoted some ridiculous amount for getting my injectors serviced. I was told $245 and thats after me having to remove them myself!! Was cheaper to get reconditioned injectors off ebay and they looked and perform like brand new.
