How mechanically inclinded are ya?
All you really need to do is unbolt the fuel rails, unplug the injectors from the harness, and swap them. Not too hard. Should take no more than 2 hrs I'd say.
Remove the torx screws that hold the crossover tube to the fuel rails. Remove the 4 bolts holding the fuel rails to the manifold. The fuel rails will not come out along with all of the injectors.
Remove the snap ring that holds the injector to the rail. Then using a little muscle, wiggle and pull the injector from the rail.
Make sure to use a suitable lubricant on the o-rings when installing the new injectors.
Should take you about 30-45mins.
good luck,
