I'm a huge advocate of cleaning injectors. The test report prior to cleaning says it all...

I neglected it far too long

The race shop I use here said it is the most commonly missed things on the cars he works on. He refuses to run dyno tuning for people unless they include injector cleaning before hand because he has run into it so often. I run BG44k through my cars every so often, but had not pulled them to be tested and obviously that was needed.

At a local race shop it cost me $120 to test and clean mine

Even tho reciprocal tariffs are supposed to be only 10-15% more for most countries' imports, it's not uncommon for brokers or customs to tack on additional tariffs (like the product's components and materials coming from other countries... or, made in China, but shipped from Japan let's say; which would be a double tariff).

I'd say 35% more (more or less) is a safe expectation; so you won't gag when seeing the unexpected high charges. That's what I got charged with my last purchase. So, if you do get lucky with only a 10-15% tariff, then you'll be extra psyched/happy.
