Are reman injectors worth it?

Theres a local injector place down here, and i know one a couple of the guys that work there and one of the guys(also has a fc, doing a 13brew swap) Said he sell me a set for 80 dollars(retails for 229 for 2 on their website). Sizes are 550c 750cc 880cc and 1600cc. I have an 88 NA. Would it benefit me to get these new injectors?

First of all, running larger-than-stock fuel injectors on your non-turbo FC is useless unless we're talking about a radically modified.
The numbers you quoted are all bigger than your stock injectors.
For reference, your stock injectors are 460 cc / minute.

Just to extend the discussion...
I don't trust anything else by NipponDenso fuel injectors on our cars.
There's a lot of cheap **** out there that claim better performance - i.e. less prone to clogging due to multiple orifices and valve design - but they tend to fail easier.
Go figure.
ND fuel injectors are top-notch quality, and keeping them clean is the key.
Use only name-brand gasolines from busy gas stations and replace your fuel filters as recommended.
You can give them a professional cleaning every several years for peace-of-mind...

I know for a fact that these injectors are good, Pretty much everyone in our subaru crew uses them(Yeah im in a subaru club with my 7 :P) But since they dont have my stock size, think it might be better to just get mine cleaned?
