Default Fuel injector cleaning services

I was recommend to Cruzin Performance by a local guy. The shop is up in MI and he charges $16 per injector with full documentation. Gotta admit, for a one man show for 20 years, he's pretty good. Plus, if his website is any indicator, he really knows what he's doing.

Here's how he does it: http://www.cruzinperformance.com/injsteps.html

Anyone else have any recommendations? I've been told RC Performance (CA) and New Era Performance Parts (NY). I like the idea of the guy up in MI not only because of how he does it, but because he's way closer then the other two shops.

Wow. That is a very intense process he puts those injectors through.

Yeah, I know. I like that you can view his entire process before you send them off.

I have always used RC. Good reputation, vast experience, and they match your injectors for free!

How can you "match" injectors unless you send them more then what you need? Do they swap them for you for another injector they have on hand?

Plus, for purely street driving, a 1-2% difference isn't going to matter a whole lot.

I've had great luck w/ Cruzin in the past.
