My car has been running 1300CC secondaries for over a year now with no problems. Those and a decent fuel pump should do you just fine. The real determining factor is whether or not your Power FC is tuned correctly for your mods.

Also, what boost are you running? You might start thinking about aftermarket ignition too.

Ive heard nothing but bad things about the 1300 injectors. They are nothing but bored out 850s. Although you probably wont have any problems with the 1300s, do you want to chance injector failure and get detonation? Its only an extra ~$300 or so to get the extreme fuel system from the RX-7store which includes a new fuel rail, SX fuel regulator, and 1600cc injectors.

Also, youre running full exhaust, an IC, and intake with stock fuel setup now? and not leaning out?

Id reccomend an ignition if you plan on running 14-15 psi
