This actually got me very curious.

So I decided to do some of my own testing to see what was actually going on instead of taking the word of anyone else.

IMO. After observing a stock injector and a modified injector it is highly NOT recommended to do so. Here is why: The spray pattern of the factory injector is amazing as far as fuel atomization is concerned. On the modified injector there is no such thing as spray pattern it is simply like a fire hose.

The factory injector is 340cc/min and the modified one is 580cc/min @ 43.5PSI

I have attached some pics for you all to enjoy.

Spray Pattern! What Spray Pattern?
Factory injector on left and modified factory injector on right:



Look at the way the modified one fires like a fire hose, on a pulsed injection mode @ 1000 RPM there are literally big droplets coming out the modified injector.
