Default Bigger injectors w/ stock internals. Worth it?

As I prepare to visit the dyno again for a re-tune I want to make sure I'm not missing anything. My goal is to squeeze as much power as I can out of the motor without touching the internals at all. 200whp would be nice . Injectors are a bit foreign to me but I do understand the concept. Since I'm internally stock would it make any difference or be worth it in any way, without hurting or hidering performance, to upgrade to, say, 310cc injectors?

Suggestions? Is my thinking off base at all?

bigger injectors are a good idea.

I don't even have all the basic I/H/E mods and according to my hondata back in the day, injector duty cycle was already hovering around 90%.

You should contact Wayne and have him look up your logs and see where you're at.....but definitely it would be wise to upgrade if you're looking to eek out as much as you can.

Tuners will usually cut your session short if they feel it's not safe due to your duty cycle.

I've made 185 on I/H/E and not maxxed the stock injectors. I've used 290cc Prelude injectors and never got glose to using them to their potenial. You might consider Preludeinjectors but without cams I would not go any bigger.

Agreed... I found the 290 prelude injectors a great option. With only boltons (enough fo them to put me into 190 territory on a jdm R) I was seeing uncomforably high duty cycle on the stock injectors.

Is there any chance at all you might go with forced induction in the future? Even if you upgrade your internals and stay all motor you could max out the 310's (220+whp and they will be maxed out). I'd just get some 440-550cc injectors, since they aren't that much more expensive that 310's, then you have a lot of room to upgrade. They should idle pretty well too. If you plan on staying around 200whp though the 310's will be fine.
