There is more to an bigger injector than drilling the holes out. I like a jerry rig or two but this is something I would never do.

Then run some Ajax through them to polish 'em up good. Just kidding, they require a bit more precision than that, better contact one of the site sponsors to get a deal on a set.

There are somethings that are better left of to the pros, who know what they are doing.... So much damage can occur from the slightest mistakes on some VERY important parts, like injectors.

Ohhh man good to see you guys showing some restraint. He's going to need alot of air for
An 1/8" hole. You don't need larger holes... Just add a hoe; right in the
Center of the tip but seriously... You'll Be happier with a new set of
Nozzles or if you can't have them tested and popped, then injectors are the wy to go.
