What fuel rails did you go for? it sounds like they have some real issues, it shouldn't be difficult to install.

Did you lube the o-rings before installing or put them in dry?

You might have cut an o-ring during the installation of the injector in the rail. If the o-ring is a size bigger or not lubed right then it will get cut. Double check that none were hurt.
