Talking Just Thinkin'

Got 4" exhaust and just installed my Van Aaken V5.
Real good throttle response , instant boost and no
smoke.Power "rolls on " gradually and smooth. Not
overwhelming but good ,which is what I was looking
for. I said I wasn't going too,but if I was to go with
injectors what would everyone recommend. I don't
want high EGT's when towing. Does this mean I need
to look for a clutch

If you add injectors you likely will need a clutch in the near future depending on how you drive. Me, I slipped my clutch 15 minutes after installing the 275's after already having the EZ. ALOT depends on how you drive!

I have Don M's Mach 1.5's and am very happy with them. Not the cheapest, but worth every penny in my opinion.

How much are the Don M 1.5 injectors ? Also I wouldn't
install them myself ,so what would be the going rate for a
shop to install them. Anyone else out there have the
Van Aaken V5 box, how do you like it ?

You can find prices for the injectors at this site:
http://www.f1diesel.com/injectors24.html
They are not on sale now, but seem to go on sale from time to time.
I don't know what the going rate is for install, but I can tell you I did them myself and it was relatively straightforward, took about three hours taking my time to make sure everything was just so. It's not really all that difficult.
If you want to look at install instructions here's a linK:

Good luck
