Wish you would've called me about this, always, always, always go with Ford remans and as someone mentioned above, replace the entire bank especially if you done know what's been done.

Consider replacing the fuel pump and making sure you have the blue fuel spring installed. Too many times people miss a weak fuel pump that cost them their injectors and have to do them again.

S&B intake
Aftermarket exhaust (Don't know brand)
Rebuilt OEM turbo
Rebuilt FICM with 100hp PHP tune
6.4 banjo bolts
Blue spring upgrade



So with that list I would like to add upgraded injectors. I just don't know how upgraded I should go.
With those mods listed you are already mildy hot rodded
Got studs?

As the other guys are saying stock sticks are more than sufficient for your application

Sorry, meant to add that above. Yes, it's been fully bulletproofed

Oh I was being extremely sarcastic with that. That just seems like all kinds of a bad idea. I mean I get it, fire the injector and have it spray carb cleaner... Simple idea, but just sounds bad as a whole.

AFA injectors go, I'd get the two that need replaced and run the rest. They're really not that hard to change, and since you're having the 2 hardest done at a shop that's the only 2 I'd replace. Any more you should be able to do yourself and save $$$$$.

All 8 are out and in a box ready to mail out for the core charge (shipping them first so no core charge). Just have to decide on the new ones
