Yes. 450s are probably the lowest you can go for 300whp

I agree with above, 550's should be plenty good for 300whp and then some.

A long time back on my old setup with a bone stock sohc motor I was making 335whp on 450cc dsms maxed out.

So will I have enough room if I went 450's? keep in mind this will be on a stock motor GSR, 8-10 PSI from a T3/T4OB 50 trim.

450 will be good if your running only 8-10 psi, you can pick up some dsm 450 for like 50 bucks on craiglist.

Yes, 550cc injectors will allow you to make around 350 whp on pump gas.

So would it be a safe bet to pick up a set of 450's for my budget Turbo build?

Yes it would be safe to run 450 on 8-10 psi. As a matter of fact I have a set of 450 I don't use sitting in the garage. PM me if you want them.

Psi has nothing to do with it homie, 450's will support 300 WHEEL HORSEPOWER on premium pump gas. The size of his turbo (which was not stated) will determine how much psi it will take to reach 300 whp on his particular setup.

OP, either injector (450 OR 550) will do you fine. For future preference on these 4 cyl. motors, follow this formula (Courtesy of Shister66):

****cc (inj. size) x 4 (cyl.) = ****cc

****cc / 6 (cc per whp) = **** whp

This is calculated at around a 75% to 85% duty cycle.
