While it won't hurt to replace the injectors anyway - you really probably want to figure out what is wrong and address that problem specifically first. Throwing money at the problem is a good way to start resenting your new car.
Run back through the thread and make note of the tests and questions everyone has posed. The only test here that will cost a dime is the fuel pressure gauge tests - and you can sometimes borrow the kit from one of the vendors. You cannot borrow it from Rock Auto however.
Narrow it down and work the problem one step at a time - you will learn a bit more about the car that way. As has been stated here, if you just throw in injectors, you could ruin them too.
This is not the last time you will have to troubleshoot the car - do the tests and checks one at a time, in whatever order you can, and come back with the results. You could check about half the things suggested herein in about 10 minutes total, and you will get a lot more good information. Lots of folks here happy to help. Its a great place to learn the tips and tricks that will get you home when your car won't start at 2am on a saturday and both this forum and rock auto are far far away...
Also, learn about the pros and cons of each of the vendors (or in the case of Dave, keep an eye open for an eventual 'con' because some day - eventually - he might make a mistake - maybe - but history so far has not revealed one). Some of them give great advice, some of them you get... advice, and some of them you get a box of parts, eventually, with a few items missing, and its your fault. Support those who support you and your car will bring you many miles of happiness.
Tom
