what HP range are you looking for? what setup are you running now? 450cc Dsm injectors are cheap and good for about 300. give or take. what tuning you running? get a FPR and up it a little.

injector size is based on projected hp levels. just throwing bigger injectors in there now is pointless and without tuning makes the engine run rich. stock injectors are fine for what you have now.

Fuel injector aren't designed to run at such low duty cycles. 450cc/min injectors will not flow accurately/predictably, and will make tuning almost impossible. Stock injectors are the appropriate size for just about any NA D-series. Only use the DSM's when you start boosting.
