How To: Durango Fuel Injector Install,Upgrade
I will say that i have a friend that has been using these same injectors on his 5.9 durango for about 3 years with no issues and i recently have installed them with about 2 months no issues.
I can't imagine any 'holy crap!' improvement, nothing worth the effort/expense. If you needed injectors for some reason, sure, kick it up a notch, but not just because they are out there to be bought.
I put in some of these injectors last fall too and they did seem to make things more responsive.
Make sure you get the green injectors though, I got sent the grey ones first and had problems with them. The guy had them on sale, and claimed they were only 2% higher flow than stock, but the car was cutting the fuel trim back as far as it could and was still running rich/like crap. Got him to send me the green ones to swap in and everything was fine then.

Resurrecting an old thread here...can anyone tell me if the "upgraded" injectors are the 4 hole or and upgraded 2 hole injector? I am looking at some remafactured "Bosch Upgrade 4 Hole Dakota 4.7L 5.4L 5.9L Fuel Injector Set" off of Ebay.

It's looking like I have a bad injector on #8 cylinder and if I have to replace one, I thought it would be prudent to replace all 8 as my '01 Durango has 248k on it (approximately, too freaking cold and windy to verify lol) ...I will probably be doing the plugs at the same time...anything else I should consider if I'm that deep into it?
Thanks in advance
