No such thing as a "best" brand when it comes to cars. If there was truely a best, nobody would use anything else.
OEM style injectors are going to be the most reliable. Bosch, Siemens, and Delphi are all good choices because of this.

The ones we recommend and carry are the FAST and Deatschwerks since they are flow tested and are within 1-2%, although we carry other brands also.

I sorta beg to differ. There are brands that I think are more reliable because they are flow tested before going out the door. There are some good injectors out there that are priced very well but they are not flow tested. I have seen some of the bulk injectors that we get in that weren't flow tested and then tested and some were not within tolerance. So when we sell the "cheaper" injectors, we always suggest to the customer to have them "tested" or a cylinder can go boom on the dyno.

I've had FAST injectors go bad on me. Never used DW injectors. There's a difference between reliable and flow tested. The flow tested ones will obviously be more accurate. OEM style injectors have been put through many many many more trials that most aftermarket injectors have and usually outlast the others, even if they don't 100% match the advertised flow. Delphi is extremely bad for this in my experience. I had some 96 LB delphi injectors that when tested, were off by as much as 12%. They were cleaned before testing, but also had over 100k miles on them. Not something that can often be said by most aftermarket injectors.

I agree, stock injectors have shown to last longer when used what they are intended for as opposed to aftermarket used in high HP applications. So yeah, there is a difference but for reasons.
FYI, the FAST and DW are based off stock OEM type injectors, so my money goes to them.

There are a lot of good choices. I'm personally going with Injector Dynamics. Plug n Play data available right off their webpage, etc. Downside is cost, if you're looking budget friendly.

Can i ask why you don't like the ID? I have a set if ID850's for my ls7 build and i got them because they were a direct fit and have been fully mapped. I don't have them installed and just curious why u don't recommend them?

Almost every injector out there has been "fully mapped" so to speak. Some of the parameters they want changed dont really do a whole lot.
Some of the IDs are not genuine products like the say. And I have had quite a few problems getting some of theirs to idle correctly. They are overpriced also. Some of them are drilled like junk too. Spray patterns all off. Of course you will never know because once they are installed you cannot see.
I have used a set of resized LS2s to replace some IDs and after resetting all the fuel parameters, only had a few tables to change and they idled so much better.
People follow them because of the propaganda they put out quite a while ago.
I have first hand experience and would rather offer something else.
