1600cc secondaries opinion

I was just wondering how many of you are running 550 primaries and 1600 secondaries, with obviously some kind of fuel controller.
cause i heard driveability is rough when the secondaries kick in. just looking for some opinions if this is the route to go.
i am currently getting a turbo upgrade and fmic installed, but i will need to do something about the fuel before i raise up the psi.
im planning to go microtech lt8 with 1600 secondaries, but is this the route i should go.
oh yeah and for mods
-center force dual friction clutch
-light weight flywheel
- 3 in dp with full straight throuh exhaust
-big fmic
-Fuel pressure regulator
-walbro 255lph fuel pump
-garrett grand national turbo
-oh yeah and intake
-motor is completely stock but running with good compression, for know.

as well i have searched the forumn but found that everybody has their own setup for fuel

Injectors

Mate i was gona get 1700s but when i found out the the 12ats are heaps better. they can handle up to 400hp with the stock 550cc as primaries.
Man if you got a **** tuner to do your car than yes its really rough. i wasnt worried about that cause the hitman tunes my car, he is a good friend so yeh.
I would suggest 12a turbos, get them clean them and they are great, another great thing is know modification to put them in. THey just go on.

with a standalone, 1600ccs aren't a problem. with a piggyback, they might be too big.

Sorry bout that
12a turbo injectors thats what 12ats are. They fit right in and almost can tune them with the 550ccs pretty well.
Ive been in an rx3 with 550s and 1700s and good is it **** when coming on and off boost thats cause they person cant tune.
It really depeneds on how good the person who tunes the car for you.
HAHA FUEL CONSUMPTion, just expect it to get worse .
