What's the average age/miles you all are getting on your fuel injection nozzles?

I'm at 135,000 miles and I'm thinking its time for an upgrade. Any thoughts on what to install?

03 TDI wagon w/01M (I know, no cracks please) have a mild tune, 1+, or so.

Well I'd vote for the bosio pp764's myself seeing as I love them lol, can't say mpg's are affected but the power is great.

I wouldn't claim to be any kind of expert, but after much consideration I decided to go with PP357's. Haven't put them in yet, but I expecting a 2-3 mpg increase and a little more throttle response. Didn't want to risk my O1M with more than it could handle, and wasn't looking to race the car just yet...

I have the PP357s installed right now. Did that @35,000mi.

Maybe its just time for a new set. Do nozzels start to crap out at around 110K?

In my experience, they can crap out in little as 50K miles if they aren't properly set up by a pro...
