Default is it safe to run larger-than-necessary injectors?

i'm thinking about some 750cc injectors, but i may only be running 250-300whp daily.

just want room to grow.

can i burn them out or something if they're underworked? any other disadvantages?

your tuner should be able to make those work, no problem.
bigger is better than too small
