injector size?

What is the appropriate injector size for about 7-10 psi of boost? I've heard many different things but I've heard mostly that I would want 550cc injectors.

550cc is sufficient. Your stock will hold it down but the duty cycle will be almost to the max if tuned electronically.

Look around and you can find good deals. RC's tend to be ungodly expensive (somewheres around 70-100 bucks an injector)

but i got my 450's from tuner toyz for $200, OEM fit mind you

a set of RC's will run ya about 300 bones. if you want you could try the hack method and use DSM 450cc's.

at 10 psi, your looking at about 90% duty cycle (around 7000K rpm). RC recommends not going above 80%, but ppl do, but you take a huge risk on that.

if you not going above 10 psi, 450's will fine, but if you want to play it safe go with 550's. better safe than sorry.
