Default injector size Is this right or is he looking out for himself

So i have a boosted b18c5 rebuilt sleeved 2.0 with a sc61 turbo. When i changed the turbo to the sc61 my builder told me to go 1000cc injectors. I picked up the car 3 weeks later and he told me he didnt have any so he put 1200cc injectors in and they were better. Is he just saying that becuase he didnt have 1000cc. I mean if it was so much better why didnt he recomend them in the fist place. Any opinions?

the bigger the better imo 1200cc are going to be better then 1000cc because you will have some more room to work with.

Its gonna be up to the tuner as far as how they will idle. Usually once you start getting around 1000 and larger, its a good idea to start using an Injector Driver. The FJO one is about $250.
