Default how do you determine what injector size is needed?

I am currently looking for injectors and dont want to get something too small but either too large. How can i find the right injector size for my setup?

Setup is a ls/vtec .50 trim turbo is 550 too small or would that be a good size?

and is 760 too big?

might need a little more info. You can always go to big and tune for the bigger injectors. And if you upgrade later you might be able to reuse the same injectors or sell them easier.... This is probably what anyone else will tell you.

you need a HP target and a bsfc number to base your calculation off of.

alright cool thanks for the link i have a stock ls that i am going to be putting a vtec head on soon, was searching around on the ls/lsvtec turbo page and saw most people were pushing 10 pds on a stock block tuned so thats what i am shooting for. I have a log manifold .50 trim turbo with a .48 exhaust housing( that should be upgraded from what i have been reading ).
