Default Injector Question

I'm needing a set of injectors for my 90, stock engine. From searching around on here it seems that the FIC injectors are the choice of most folks. Are you guys using the rebuilt injectors or the new ones?

According to many experts, fuel injectors do not wear out...they just get dirty. Cheap inj have coil failures or a body that cracks but the more name brand like Bosch seem to do well without those kinds of problems. Everyone I know jumps on the rebuilt/matched set from FIC for just over $200...its a deal.
I think a dirty bosch-III would run better than a new mule-tic injector.

I had no problem with my stock injectors in my 91. Even after I blew it up. I got 29 # injectors with the Pro Flo 2 kit that I bought.
The kit ended up not working. The ECM and wiring harness didn't match up too well. The injectors fit the stock TPi, so I use them now with the stock intake system.

I would call Jon and ask. He hasn't steered anyone wrong yet. If It helps I am happy with the rebuilts he sold me.

Default Bosch Injectors from FIC

FIC gets my vote. I love my rebuilt Bosch injectors!
