Injector help

I saw and ad on FTE a little while back for a website that has a kit where you can convert your stock injectors into split-shot intjectors urself. I know a guy who can do this for me and he owes me a favor so does anyone know which website I saw? Thanks

What year is your truck?
I am of the opinion that split shot injectors are not as good as singles.
You'll get better mileage, and no injector cackle, HPOP doesn't have to work as hard, etc. A lot of things are better about running single shots.
So I am wondering why you would want to convert to splits.

A 2003 already has splits from the factory and the PCM is programmed to run with them.
If you want to convert to singles, then you have to get a chip programmed to run the singles.
Not a big deal, but I wanted to let you know that is a necessary part of the conversion.
If I ever need injectors again, that's what I would be doing.

I'm thinking that I'll do the DIY injectors, *IF* I can get single-shots that won't need more mods. I can get my DP reburned if necessary to match these, but do I have to go to a 180cc kit to get the singles? I'm happy with the power & performance of my truck - better mileage with a little boost in power would be nice though. I'm not racing or pulling sleds, so big power is not my goal. I drive 40,000miles each year so better mileage is what I'm after primarily. Thanks all!

You'll probably want to call DIY to see if they have more options if you didn't want to go to a 180cc injector.
