Bad injectors or harness? OEM or Upgrade?

So my tuner diagnosed my 2008 F250 6.4 as having possibly 2 bad fuel injectors my mechanic said it might be the harness. Now when I replace should I go OEM or upgrade? And are the remanufactured just as good? And if I upgrade which brand do you recommend and for what reasons? BTW I have a SCT livewire, EPA deletes, open 4" turbo back, upgraded head bolts, New OEM rockers. So please any suggestions will be appreciated!

The tuner spit out the codes along with the problem so I called my mechanic and he told me it was the injectors or the injector harness.

for "bad injectors", open primary fuel filter and dump a few onces of injector cleaner. start engine and run for 2 minutes at 1500 rpms. do this 3 to 4 times within a 2 hour period. injector problem may get resolved.
