Wait a minute.
You need to verify your fuel pressure. minimum is > 45PSI.
Have you done this?
If not, you need to before we can help.
If you have low fuel pressure it galls the plunger in the barrel of the injector and will burn it up. The fuel lubricates and cools the injector.

Fuel gelling yes that would need very cold weather, FICM not so much. 30s or 40s would get that little dodad. It might have been stressed bad in December and just now decided to crap out.
You have injector problems, so it's either going to be the control module, fuel(or related fuel issues: dead-heading, bad fuel etc), or the power programmer that you have on there or a combination of all those.
Do you get all your fuel at the same spot or do you switch it around? Does it have issues with having bad fuel or does it have a high turnover?
Does it only happen with the SCT on there or does it do it every time?

I went through the SCT options on the monitor side and I don't see where I can monitor the fuel pressure. How can I check this? But I did do another engine check on it with the SCT and it gave me 10 different codes and I cleared them.
