How about this question....what HP do you want because that is where is comes into play. If you want below 270 get some DSM 450cc. If you want below 350 get some 550 and above that just get 750cc and then you have to shell out big dough for the 1000cc, but if you needed 1000cc you wouldn't be asking no would you

then pick up a set of used DSM 450cc injectors with resistor box for like $60-$75 and make sure you have some engine managment to control the bigger injecotrs and you'll be ready to go!

Reliability is a big factor when getting used DSM injectors. If one injector fails when under boost it could destroy your engine. If you go that route get them flow tested and cleaned professionally

If an injectors fails...your motor WILL blow. True reliability is a concern. Make your choice. Many many many people use them with no problems
