Default how much hp can prelude injectors handle?

Hello all, I was wondering if the 280cc/min prelude fuel injectors could handle 200 whp? That is what I am shooting for after I get my obd1 ecu and tune it with a fields sfc. My set up is: cai,jdm 4-1,greddy evo,itr pistons,toda b,cam gears,fpr,carsound cat,and skunk im. This is in a 00 gsr.

So did I, I'd imagine the prelude injectors could handle 200whp, but why not just dish out the extra money and get some RC 310's or 370's if your goin hondata

I was considering getting a set of lude injectors... That's if you can gettem cheap, but I would rather spend another 50 to 60 bucks for brand new RC 310cc injectors, est. $340 clips included.

Prelude injectors ('97+) are 290cc/min and $150 a set readily available..... and they plug right in where the old 240 (itr) injectors did...

.....try it. At worst, you can sell the lude injectors without taking much of a loss (if any).

azn, sure they're used - but they're meant to be used...

ditto.

They're ~21% bigger than stock itr injectors.....

I could be wrong, but seemingly that would mean that they'd be good for at least 193.6whp on stock fuel pressures and duty cycle.....

To make 207whp on stock injectors, i needed about 80psi or so of pressure.
And the pump wasnt able to keep up very well. 290cc would be able to
take care of 200-210whp i would think. It really depends on your ECU program.

ok, I am pretty clear on the lude injectors, they look like they will do the trick. Do you guys think my stock gsr fuel pump will suffice? I don't imagine I will be cranking the fp more than 60 psi.....who knows?

SO long as you dont go past 60psi you will be ok, assuming the pump is in
decent shape.

How is the idle with prelude injectors on a B series motor? Will a SAFC be needed. Also, is a 12:1 fmu to much with those injectors or will a 10:1 be adequate. TIA
