nozzles or injectors

I was wondering if it would be good to get upgraded nozzles. I can get stage 5's for around 225$ if not cheaper, but new injectors run about 700ish I think. My truck does have 194k on it, and I'm already only getting 14mpg. Would it be better to just save up more money to just get the whole injectors?

You can search this topic and read for days. It all depends on you. Alot of folks will tell you to only buy the best (that's what's right for them) and some will tell you to go the cheap way (that's what's right for them) some say you have to have them pop tested, and ALOT of folks just put them in with no problems. SO read up and make up your own mind. It's what's right for you, not them. There's no wrong answer. JMO

I did Nozzles about a month a go and now I am doing full ddp stage 3 injectors it looks like nozzles didn't work for me. but for the price savings I figured I would try the nozzles first.

Nozzles are a good bang for the buck but usually dont see the miliage gains,as cool EGT's and smoke control like you would with a F1 or DDP injector.

100hp jammers and i get 18-19 driving like a paw paw in the city. and 20-21 driving 80+ on long trips on the hwy.

i would love to have some F1 sticks but i cant afford them. i m happy with my setup now.

when diesel was 3 dollars a gal i got 14-16 constantly.

i use 1 pint of outboard oil every other tank and 3-4oz howes fuel treatment every tank.

I like the exit of the tailpipe, I have never seen something that is close to stock IMO
