On paper, the Stage 2 injectors 160/80 or 100% nozzles just aren't worth the trouble. You're either shooting for good numbers on stock high pressure oil (like the 160/0% injectors in Bill's red truck; 395 HP and still able to maintain 3000 PSI) for $1100 or you're looking at making more than 400 HP with the possibility of not needing an aftermarket high pressure pump (strong case for hybrids).

Stage 2's are just kind of....well.... outdated. They're pretty oil hungry and they don't have the fuel capacity for an easy 400+ HP.
Thanks Cody, the reliability is really what I'm after & the way I drive I've got plenty of power. I'm just trying to get a good idea of what I want to do as I've got 190k on the originals & I believe a couple are a little sticky.
