You'll need 450s, it absolutely will not work with 370cc.

hack should be good for 5psi on the 370s, if you calculate it.

Yeah technically it's like 6.5 psi BUT...are you running a .45 bar spring but is the MAP actually seeing that much...either way, I'd throw a code the second I hit 7 PSI.

i'm sure you could run as big as you like, just make sure you compensate for the larger injectors with the settings. I have not done this yet so I'm clueless on how to adjust it. I can only read what someone else has written and learn from that.

to my understand the biggest you can go is about 550's, and then you'll start running into idle issues.

with 440's/450's or wahtever the first gen dsm injectors are, you're good till about 11 or 12 psi, then you'll throw a code. the smaller the injector, the less psi you'll be able to run without throwing a code

all an ecu does it look at the pressure in the intake manifold, and figures out how much fuel to dump in. when using that big of an injector, you adjust the signal that the ecu is getting into thinking that there is a lot less pressure than before, but you'll still be dumping in enough fuel as it had stock.

the beauty in all this is you can keep the manifold pressure quite low, while dumping in a lot more fuel, allowing you to run a turbo.

*edit* dammit back from the dead...my bad
