Putting in injectors, what gaskets will need to be replaced?

LIke the title says, I will be installing some bigger injectors pretty soon and would like to know if I will have to replace tpi gaskets. While I'm in there will I need to replace the TB gasket as well? Where can I find some cheap, like does Autozone carry them?

I just replaced the injectors on mine and the only gaskets I needed were for the upper plenum and the runners. Wasn't to bad.

Nope.

Go to Autozone or whoever else carries fel pro gaskets and get the upper plenum gasket set.

U wont need the TB gasket but is is included, just no real reason to take it off, just disconnect everything from it.

Dont forget to lube the injector o-rings and make sure your egr is clean when your there, since your at the halfway mark for yanking the intake as a whole

later
