I wouldn't say it is extending anything, just preventing leaks via damage during install with new seals.
I know my replacement injector set went in like butter when replaced after using that tool and I have no regrets or concerns. The tool definitely shaped and compressed them properly, per the service manual prior to install. If something went south with a seal and I had to pull my blower off again and replace both the hardlines again I would have wished I saw this thread. The hardlines alone cost 3x that tool let alone 2-3 hours each way to R/R the blower. Mine were replaced once using the method you are suggesting and I had either a leaking seal or bad injector in cylinder #3. I'm was not taking the chance for 45 bucks.

The setups that I am considering: 1.) Centri: Procharger's "CARB Compliant" kit (the one that retains the stock upper part of the airbox), P1X (instead of the 1SC) + Stg.2 FMIC. Boost level with these kits is set at ~ 7 PSI as far as I am aware? Or 2.) PD: Stock GM material - TVS2300 / ZL1/Z06/CTS-V style + ADM /Weapon-X, Etc. "installation kit" (mostly stock GM ZL1 parts + adapter plates / various other fasteners, relocation harnesses, etc.) Main concern with PC's Centri option is, that it shares the 6-PK accessories drive belt (I.E. with the alternator, AC, Etc.) - I am not sure about the reliability and sturdiness of such a system But maybe, with only 7 # of boost it will hold up OK? |

(Plus you know how it goes, once this is done, you'll start wondering after a couple passes at the dragstrip what 700 hp feels like, then 850 hp becomes very interesting all of a sudden... Just look at the specs and horsepower numbers in this very thread LiqTenExp is very modest with his signature, but rest assured that his car is a beast.)

In addition, I understand that the FSCM/CCM is still tunable with a satisfactory effect for this range of boost level (~7-9 PSI) and WHP level... |

I bought the Amazon seal tool listed in this thread, looks cheap/China and reviews are sketchy with folks tearing up seals. So I ordered the OTC kit and will return the $30 Amazon one. $150 but they are prob the OEM supplier. I’ll skimp on some tools but high pressure injector seals doesn’t like like a good one.
What are folks doing to remove/install injector clips? GM tool for that is $193. I think I’d just buy new clips and be careful installing.

I chose not to go LT4 but now that I have that in site I may do it at a later time. I'm in no rush that 565 hits different and its a ball to drive as is but from the start 600 was my goal. Only time will tell. |

Highly recommend this tool. The bore is machined to a smooth finish unlike the Chinese junk I bought on Amazon. 👍

Also, i did not use a seal compression tool. It's not required, but prob still a good idea.
