It doesn't really depend on your mods, it depends on how much boost you are trying to run. The more boost you are wanting to run, the more fuel you need to add for the Air/Fuel mixture..

What boost level are you thinking of running?

I don't know for sure. I see a lot of people upgrading their secondaries to 1300.

You'll also want to upgrade your fuel pump as well. I'm sure if you did a search for "injector size", I'm sure you'll find some answers (unless someone else pops in here to answer you in more detail).

I hope you have an ecu. I would get one of those first. Then run 1300 secondaries, upgraded Supra TT pump, and a FPR.
That would cover it.

Fuel pump is the second easiest upgrade after short shifter (takes 5 minutes). Fuel pump takes about 30 minutes. Just don't smoke while doing it and you should be ok.

To change injectors, you will need a programmable ECU like the Power FC, haltech, AEM, etc. You really should have one anyway with your mods.

KD Rotary sells RC Engineering bored out stock secondaries (1200/1300cc) for ~$330/pair with your stockers as a core deposit. They drop right in, but you need an aftermarket ECU (haltech/power fc/etc) to run them. Of course, dave installed mine, so I have no idea how difficult it was....I've heard the secondaries are a pita to get to.

Check the Rx7store for injectors as well....can't remember offhand, but he might sell them.

Btw, I would keep the boost at its current 8psi until upgrading engine management and injectors.

There are injector computers you can buy but they are expensive and you can do the same thing with a PFC/Haltech/or AEM plus tune everything else on the car. The remapped stock computers can't control upgraded secondaries. 1200/1300cc should be ok for your mods and yes, I've heard they are a PITA to get to.
