Default Injectors TOO big???

I recently bought some injectors from a local shop but im not sure what size they are and i was wondering if they are tooooo big will this cause problems or will the ECU only allow a certain amount of gas to be dispersed?? I have mods and will need bigger than stock injectors but if this could cause a prob then i will buy some new RC310s and call it good.

you wouldn't buy an engine without knowing the displacement would you?

I concur with all responses thus far.

Edit: Although, if your using a standalone engine management setup, you can compensate for most injectors.

The ECU only controls the amount of time the injector opens. So if you have a bigger injector and a small injector, the bigger one will allow more fuel if they are both open the same amount of time.

if you post pics of them, im pretty sure we will be able to give you a good guess as to who makes them, and then you can contact them from there for specs.

just a suggestion
