4 x 720 would be easy to tune

or just grab some 850's outta a 3rd gen

IMO, they can't support 350 at the wheels unless you start to bump up the fuel pressure.

Too bad they don't "drop into" a stock FC fuel rail.

550/1200 will work fine for 350RWHP and if you do some simple rewiring of the fuel pump it will support even closer to 390RWHP.

if your goinf to use the microtech you have in your sig, then 1600;s will work .

1200's would be ideal. But they most likely will cost more than the 1600's

You can try the 1300 secondaries, that should be fine with a upgraded fuel pump

1300's from where?

ive looked at some online injector stores... 1600's seem to go for around $100 a piece...

i want the powerband to be smooth (drift car) i need it to be smooth, and not a peak hp figure...(maybe i shouldnt be using a rotary )

4x850cc's or something along those lines will work fine, no?

what will the stock injectors at like 90% duty cycle support?

i wont jump to 350whp right away.

probably around 270-280. i'll be running 7-10psi with the my hybrid t4.

cheers,Dan.

Powerband has nothing to do with fuel injector size as long as the EMS can handle it.
Oh wait, you're running a Microtech!

1600's are not bad once you figure out how to tune arround the boost transition.

You need a custom fuel rail for it.
FD's run all side-feed fuel injectors.
FC's run all top-feed fuel injectors.
They are basically not swappable.
