Default Whole Injectors Vs Nozzles

whats better to run a set of nozzles or complete injectors? Been really thinking of adding some fuel to my truck but not too much for the stock turbo as it's going to be daily driver and tow rig for horses on weekends when g/f takes it to horse shows. Fass is on the way to being here and installed

ive been contemplating this also.
This is kinda what i have been thinkin-Nozzles means you have to take your injectors out take them to a fuel shop have them reset the crack pressure(meanwhile you truck is sitting)and all the jazz that goes with it and then get them back in your truck, but you can get a set of 150 HP nozzles for like $200

Injectors-Buy em take your old ones out put the new ones in, 150 HP injectors run i think about what $600-$700 plus what ever core is.

I have a friend that works at a fuel shop so i could get them reset pretty easy and cheap but i dont know how much it costs to have your nozzles put in.

Thats how i look at it, if you can sacrifice downing your truck for a week id go with nozzles but if you cant you'll pry have to buy the hole injector.
