CIS injector testing : any interesting DIY setup ?

[thejimrose]

i have only had motorycle injectors done, although i don't see why they
couldn't do car injectors [same basic contraption]. IIRC they charged 200
for a clean and flow plotting, and then matched them to others in their
stockpile. they cut me a deal for donating a set to their stockpile. i had
them balanced to +/-2% - they'll go further but it's more $ [takes more
hunting through injectors since the can't adjust the injectors really].
they're called factory pro in san rafael, ca - a well known shop in the MC
world. there's another place called rc engineering i've heard of that does
injector work in so cal.

i'd go with the place mike mentioned below - 20$ each is CHEAP!
