Nothing your saying above leads me to believe you have an injector issue. You could have a turbo issue, a leaking boot or up pipes, a fuel issue... About a hundred different things other then injectors.

IF you just want injectors then thats differant...

Hybrids are the only way to go. With hybrids you can tune for 250 RWHP or 500+ RWHP... what ever you want. They will work with a stock turbo, or anything in between... No need for oil mods, or anything else.

But you need to find out what the cause of your high EGT's and no power. Its not likely your injectors.

the reason i believe it is my injectors is i can hit 26 psi of boost and while running down the road i run 2.5 to 10 psi i have looked at my up pipes and dont see any soot on them at the turbo or manifold

How long do injectors last. I have had the number 8 one replaced before I bought it, or the number 1 and 8 I am not too sure.

I am at 209k and I have only had 2 of the 8 replaced, the others are as old as the truck.
