I want to upgrade to higher flow injectors but I tried in the past and had some bad luck. I purchased them online for just about $300. They were supposedly the Bosch 275HP RV injectors. I did the install myself as I do most everything and following the manual's instructions to the letter. I loved the performance when I put them in but after about 3 weeks I was driving one day and suddenly I had a loud knocking and an impressive cloud of white smoke out the tailpipe. Assuming that this was caued by injectors, nothing else had changed on the truck, I limped it home and put my stock injectors back in. The problem disappeared and the truck ran great again. I contacted the place I bought them from and was told that a metal shaving might have been missed during machining that caused the injector to clog so I returned them for exchange. The second set of injectors did the same thing as the first after about 1. 5 weeks, though not as severely. I believe that I was only having trouble with 1 injector this time.



Now for my questions after that long disortation. Has anyone else experienced similar problems to that? Is it possible that I could have possibly goten dirt or something down in the injector during installation? If so, how would I prevent that from happening again?



I have been looking for new injector and am interested in the Edge units. I was looking at just the nozzles to save money. Anyone have experience with these? And is it possible to buy a good reliable set of injectors that will give me that little extra power I'm looking for in the $300-400 range?
 
Be very careful of some of the 'lower' priced 275's. A set of Jammer nozzles would be a very inexpensive and quick fix for a little added power.
