Hello guys,

I was wondering if I can replace my injectors in my home. Is an easy process or does it need a professional tech? Please give me a detailed instructions if it's easy to do. Thanks all :-)

Injectors are typically easy to change. IDK how much complexity the supercharger adds though.

However, if you're changing the size (flowrate) of them, you have to be able to re-flash your computer with the new flowrate data.

There's 2 10mm bolts that hold the fuel rail down. Remove the fuel line from the front of the rail. Remove the 2 10mm bolts. Lift the fuel rail off the injectors. Swap injectors and put the rail back on. You will need a tune for the new injectors.

Edit: You may have to disconnect the fuel line from the back of the rail to.

Sometimes it's hard to pop the old injectors out of the mani, a wide screwdriver used carefully may help a bit. Careful!

Some lube makes insertion easier (in most aspects of life).
