I'd look into the price of pop testing compared to an upgraded injector. If you looking at 50% more, why not get injectors that burn better and cleaner, yeilding more mileage and torque? $0.02 supplied my RAWilliams....

I dont know how one would go about trying to test them at home, but i do know it doesnt cost much to have em checked at an injection shop, the guys i called said if i pull em, they test them for free(so i'll know which one of mine is knockin tomorrow! haha)

What if your looking into buying junk injectors that the company took no time to set them up properly?

Im the other guy looking into getting mine pop tested because haisley is about 45 min away and i believe they are charging 4 bucks an injector. The reason im looking into it is my truck just seems to haze to much but maybe that part is just me. However it seems like after a little digging that people are getting better mileage on highway than i am and im starting to wonder if the 290k on the stock injectors is having anything to do with it. I also have this mystery lope in the summer time that i cannot track down that is super annoying and this is one of the many ideas that has popped into my head since i cant seem to come to a conclusion as to what the lope is. Come next year im ordering some SDX's so i dont know it it would be worth while to have them pop tested or not...
