Do I need larger injectors?

Pretty straightforward question based upon my sig. Basic injector calc's think "maybe" I do.


Just trying to get some thoughts on if I am pushing my injectors too hard. I do not have a reason to believe I am, but I have no knowledge in this area.

You got 321 hp with bolt ons and a mild port job???? That seems like a damn good number to me...I don't think you're to the limit yet. As you approach the 350rwhp you will be...I've heard the stock fuel system (injectors/pump) are good for 400hp which translates to about 350ish at the wheels....

Glad to hear I don't have to work on that part of my car in the near future.

Thanks for the input.

I wouldn't worry about it until you swap the cam...
