Default When should I change stock injectors?

Ok...have any of you changed your stock 240cc injectors and are making roughly 190whp. I read a previous post about the stock injectors maxing out on a b17 at 7500 with a an ITR IM and header. I personally am about to drop in a built LS/VTEC into my DA with GSR cams for now, then upgrade to Skunk2 stage 2. What are your opinions as far as fuel delivery. I trust the ITR forum more for advice

It was my friend who was maxing out his injectors. He is both an Acura tech and a Hondata dealer.

We saw a/f ratios as high as 17:1 at 8000+ RPM! Yikes!

EDIT: His advice to anyone with a 1.8 litre is to replace the injectors and put in a Hondata as soon as you start adding mods that increase airflow. He's been saying that the stock injectors are insufficient for a while now, and after seeing this I have to agree.

my stock 240's were running 100% at 8500RPM on stock motor.

one way is to up the fuel pressure - but that would only work to a certain point.. i read before it has some negative effects.

I got 370's and running lower pressure, you would need a good engine managment system to run these.
