Default injector size....

are 1000cc injectors over kill for a 350-400hp turbo setup? i did the injector calculator on RC's site and it said like 650's would work....i know my buddy had 750's on his turbo gsr and said the duty cycle was maxed out and he was putting down about 375hp. what do you think would be safe?

to be honest, nothin is overkill....

its good to have more then you need, cause you can always tune "down" you can never tune "up"

id rather run my 1000cc injectors at 65% duty cycle... then my 750cc injectors at 90% duty cycle

(i dont know if thats actually close)

not always true, you dont want the injectors to not spray well enough because they arent opening long enough. 1000cc's would work, and if you, like everyone, are going to want more horsepower eventually then get the 1000's. but 650-750's are fine for 350-400 hp all day long.
