Man, there are a lot of people clocking 20-30K miles a year on these. That is a ton of driving!

duty injectors both port and di. I also have access to the machines and tools needed to do this so not nearly as big of a task for me as someone in their garage.

Its killing me, I've had the Vortech kit sitting at my house since ~22.5k miles, but can't/won't put it on if the engine isn't healthy.

Mine is #180. Took delivery May 16, 2012. My engine sounds like a diesel and the dealer said they are going to replace the HPFP. I'm trying to figure out how the HPFP can cause the engine to knock, misfire, and tick without damaging to the motor itself, but this is what they're saying.

I had a direct injected car before this with HPFP and misfires and fueling issues (which were plentiful) never hurt the motor.
