So had hard starts and white smoke in my 91 dually only 3 glow plugs were working. Put motor craft plus in and helped a ton but still missed and surged. Took the injectors out and pop tested all of them only one was above 1700 psi 5-6 were right around 1500-1600 and 2 would bleed off before 1500... I'm assuming I better buy a set of injectors but. I have a banks turbo doing around 5-8 psi I am wondering what injectors should I buy? Just the regular code for non turbo or should I get the turbo specs one. Or would the injection pump not pressurize the higher pop on the turbo specs injectors.

For what it's worth, there's no difference in the turbo vs NA injectors, at least not anymore. All the quality remanufactured injectors are set to the same specs, and most of the "new" injectors are junk anyway. If that's your only question just order a set of remanufactured injectors from his website. He does quality work and won't steer you wrong.

The issues start if the injection pump is starting to get weak. Sometimes putting new injectors that pop when they're supposed to will do in a weak old pump. It's usually recommended to replace the IP at the same time, but lots of people don't and manage ok.

That's not really how any of that works stock injectors are just fine. Higher pot pressure had nothing to do with the turbo they changed the tip a little bit but that's not even available the BB code tips that I use are the best bang for the buck for every application.
