Default Prelue injectors on Turbo LS good? yay or nay.....

Planning to upgrade my injectors on my LS which is about to get a Turbo slapped onto it.

Should I spend a couple bucks ($70) on 4 used prelude injectors.....
* prelude injectors: 290cc

* Integra LS injectors: 190cc?

for:
Turbo running will be a tubonetic t3 / drag manifold
STR fuel rail / fogot what kind of FPR i got
turbonetic wastegate - external
Blitz blow off
2.75" catback custom fitted to RS*R axle back
Blockguard (just in case)

Running 7PSI on stock internals.

Dont know what I will use to Tune this bltch.......

cant find one that will work with my OBDII ECU

oh yeah...........

Is this heat shield worth it?

Best bet would be to get a harness converter and get an obd1 ecu chipped and loaded w/some type of program that your local tuner tunes. Don't use a blockguard, some might argue they are neccessary at high boost levels but most people will aruge against them because a good tune will cure detonation so that you will not need one. Do some research on this topic, you will find out alot of info, also try homemadeturbo.com.
As for the injectors...If you are planning to go any higher than 8 psi, on I'm assuming a t3 or a small t3/t4, you can get away with using some 450cc dsm injectors. Any more than that and you want to get some larger RCs or something comparable to them. You don't want to run the 450s at too high of a duty cycle, have one stop working, and blow up your motor. The money from not buying the blockguard will add to the money for the injectors. Just check out the marketplace....I've seen some non RCs lately going for cheap.
Once again, look through posts by searching to find a ton of info on turbocharging your car, by your question over the injectors and the use of a blockguard it seems to me like you might need some brushing up on your knowledge over this easy to mess up modification.

convert to obd1 and use larger injectors. 290 is a bit smal if you want to go any higher.
