Default Did the injector swap... is this a bad thing? (Pic)

I ordered a set of 784 Injectors from Programbo, installed them today. So far I've noticed a smoother idle and there's definitely more throttle response. I won't be able to gauge gas mileage until next fill up.

I did the swap basically just because I wanted to, but after removing the old injectors, I inspected them, and found...

There was also a crack on the other side, though it was smaller.

I'm guessing this probably wasn't a good thing? It didn't seem to be leaking and I never smelled gas... but it couldn't have been much longer before there was going to be a problem. Right?

Turns out to be a good thing I wanted to upgrade my injectors "just for the hell of it".

So is that one of your "new" ones? Or are you asking for ****s and giggles? If its for s&g this should be in chat probably. Gee oh Dee do you job

And its probably was just the plastic shell..so no worries really but diffidently not a good thing.

No worries here, I was hoping Gee oh dee wouldve seen it. He's my favorite mod. No homo. So I was just really giving him crap. And its not really "advanced tech" your more of "chatting" about how bad the injector is.
