Default Fuel injector trouble ?

I have I believe, 1 or 2 fuel injector/s, and since the cost for new replacements range from roughly $45-$55 apiece, does it just make sense to remove the whole lot and get them rebuilt ? not too sure about how this would work out, but any opinions are welcome ?

Thank you,

If your wallet can afford it I’d replace all of them with new OEM !!

Well after viewing my other options, ( And there ain't too many) I'm thinking replacing them might be the best idea, it's still $375.00 !

I'd rather send them to a shop to have them clean and flow-matched. Then you know they're all performing as well as they can.

Good Idea, but who is in the business and does a quality job ? New Bosch injectors go for $46.79 each ? This is the only rebuild service I have found yet, http://www.neweraperformanceparts.com/ ??? Anyone ever use this service ?
