What do bigger fuel injectors do for you? Do they lower your MPG at all?

You should only get bigger fuel injectors if you have done enough modification to your engine that the stock ones will not flow enough fuel causing a lean condition. The injectors will not cause a loss in mileage, the mod's that require them will. Now you can change out your stock ones for some 19 lb FMS and it will improve your throttle response b/c they use 4 spray holes where the stock only have 1. This allows the fuel atomise in the air better.

Well it depends on which motor you have as to what your injectors are, doesn't it? I mean, I've played with mine, but I haven't changed them out or anything. Hell, I had to pull the whole fuel rail and injectors when I did my HO Intake (which was harder than I thought it would be). It'd be real easy to swap the injectors.

Do you have to get a fuel rail and new injectors, or at least a fuel rail when you get the new HO intake?

Nope, although after seeing how easy it would be to make my own, I though about doing a cooled fuel rail like someone else here on the board. I just can't remember who the heck it was (Duner maybe).

How much do one of those cooled fuel rails cost?

You can't buy one, you have to make it yourself. I think he ran a copper tube with water flowing through it around his fuel rail and then insulated the whole thing. I can't remember exactly how it worked. He wrapped the tube into a coil around something for heat exchange.
