i dont have a single injector issue being at 450whp on pump...i honestly never heard of an injector issue but thats just me
mo' ethanol mo' problems
Oh I get that. Ethanol is still harder on seals and degrades quicker though. Too easy to get where I am though, and MPI is too nice to bother with trying to get more ethanol out of DI-only.Plenty of pump gas cars have had injectors fail.
Personally I would do stock injectors and not touch any of these "upgraded" DI injectors

ended up getting new OEM injectors here and am shocked at how much better the car runs especially in part throttle and mid range, my car was clearly having injector and fueling issues from these injectors for a long time, really happy I replaced all of them in one go, transformed the car. just putting the codws my car threw for whoever in the future has the same issue and googles it. even with this annoyance though E50 fuel mix tune is WELL WORTH it on this car, driving it on pump gas is a massive flaccid bummer once you get used to any decent ethanol mix. if these minor issues are the only reliability price I have to pay for having a nearly 500hp daily driver hatchback that takes kids to school for >50k miles at ~ this power level then i'm still very happy

Cylinder 4- injector circuit
Full frames keep EGTs that much lower?it is my opinion that with stock frame style turbos on MK7 that pump gas creates way too high EGT and cylinder temps on most tunes and pump gas creates other issues, so I personally would not do any long pulls on 91 octane or risk frying that cylinder #4 piston and piston ring, as so many have done. so ethanol has some prices you have to pay but i will happily replace and injector or a seal vs having to replace a motor. i credit the ethanol fuel tune to how my car has so reliably made 450+hp now for going on 50k miles
