Also this power cut is getting more frequent. It was happening at lower revs yesterday and seems to be far more regular at higher rpm. I’m up in Edinburgh so a trip to eurospec is not really viable. Any suggestions for a mapper near me?
I have the 410cc RDXs in mine, they should average around £210-250. Anything less unless imported direct from Acura in the US are likely chinese fakes and should be avoided.
Heard of a few engines blowing due to fake injectors so I just ponied up the full price of them from a reputable tuner as it wasn't worth the risk.
Good place to get them would be clockwise motion.

You can get injectors tested/cleaned - https://www.fuelinjectorclinic.co.uk/ - for example, but no doubt there are others. It'll be cheaper than buying new ones if they're still functional.
Likewise you could test the spray pattern yourself if you pull the plug and disconnect it, and pull the associated injector so you can see its spray pattern, but that's a fair bit more work and slightly risky (sprayed petrol under pressure near a hot engine).
Can't you also put something in the fuel tank that helps clean the injectors?

I’ve run two full tanks of redex through the engine and it’s not improved it at all.
Shouldn’t I be getting some kind of error code on the kpro app?
Worth getting a multimeter out and seeing if you have any breaks in the injector loom.
They usually come with Toyota pigtails and clips that need soldering to the OEM loom or clips that piggyback off the OEM loom like a converter.
If there's a bad solder then vibrations / heat might be causing a brief (dis)connection resulting in a misfire.
Maybe the map before wasn't great?
