Injector Cleaning Question

I sent out my 22RE fuel injectors to Rich at Cruzin Performance about a week and a half ago to get fully serviced. I just received the results of my injector testing before and after the servicing. The test I find most interesting is the 100ml static flow test. My injectors actually did worse after they were cleaned.

Dirty injectors (mL): 100 100 94 97
Clean injectors (mL): 100 99 93 95

The results were pretty close to the same for the rest of the tests. What would cause this? I certainly don't want my injectors doing worse after paying money to get them serviced. Anyone else have the same thing happen? I'm not knocking Cruzin in anyway, they have been great to deal with. I just want to know what's going on.

Have you called and asked them? If so, what did they say?

Got a reply from Rich saying that the injectors aren't closely matched. Overall, flow did increase for all 4 injectors however, flow for 3 and 4 didn't increase as much. He said he tried cleaning them again but nothing changed. 1 and 2 are actually flowing more than they're supposed to.

Sounds like they need to be replaced even after you paid for cleaning.What a bummer!
