I am not sure about the bosio nozzles though. After 100K, I had one dirty injector. At 200K they were ok but I changed over to Bosio nozzles for performance reasons. At 300K, 4 out of 6 nozzles were worn and couldn't be cleaned so I replaced them. Not sure I would buy them again.
Interesting - are you going back to Bosch when the time comes then?
