Opinions/Input needed!

Here's the dilemma:

Truck is in the shop and I'm waiting to hear back from them to see what is going on with it. Preliminary thoughts are I have injector/s that are bad. Not for certain though but that's the guess. Most likely I'm gonna be down alittle while.

My question to all of you our there is this.

What should be done as far as anything above & better than stock?

or

Should I just replace whats bad w/ stock parts and leave it at that?

Unfortunately I am budgeted on what I can do. Which is probably a good think b/c the truck has to have good manners and still be able to tow. I guess what I am saying is that I'm not going for anything wild. I just need input on what I should do to make it more reliable. The one thing I am going to do for sure is have and EGR delete kit installed. Probably River Citys.

Thanks, in advance for the info and sorry to be windy.

Ben

The truck is an '06 F-350 CC LB 6.0. It's been stock all of its life w/ 112k miles on the truck.

RCD EGR delete is made the same as the rest of the good ones, so it's fine. AFA the injectors go MOTORCRAFT ONLY. A tad more expensive but worth the difference.
