Clean injectors and let them sit for a long-assed time
I'm considering sending out a set of RX7 injectors for cleaning/flow testing. I suspect they'll be then tossed into my box of turbo parts for a few months unused. Will there be any worries if they aren't installed in a timely manner? What if by months I mean not until next year or the year after?
Considering I've been collecting parts for this DIY turbo since sometime around late 2006. . .

I just had an injector cleaning conversation with a local speed shop. They claim that most shops use water based cleaning agent. If you put the injectors in right when you get them back, they're fine. If you leave them sit they rust due to the water based agent.
