Default 99 TA + all bolt-on's + F11 cam = need bigger injectors??

Will be doing an F11 cam and wondering if I will need new injectors. Hope to hit around 400rwhp or more. Have all bolt-on's except pulley and stock gears & 10 bolt. Will my stock injectos be ok?

no you dont need them. i put down 377/371 full bolt on less pulley with the f10 (the exhaust is 2 degrees smaller than the f11)

Well I really hope to hit the 400rwhp mark. I know I'll need a pulley too, though. It seems most with the F11 and full bolt-ons are right around the 400 mark or more with stock gears and on the stok 10 bolt rear.

I went with red top SVO 30 lb injectors. I'm at 415 to the wheels. I'd get them in case you do more mods down the road.

i'm at 80-85% duty cycle on svo 30s and ~360rwhp.
this weekend we're putting together a svo 42s + FMS F10 car, so ask me in few days, and i will tell you what the duty cycle is like on that.
generically speaking though, yes, you need at least 30s, if not 42s

I'll agrew with the above. Anyone can "get away" with this or that. Do you want to get away with something, or do it the right way? Running an injector beyond 80% keeps heat in the coil of the injector, wamrs fuel which leads to knock, and the warmer coil will experience a reduced working life. For comparison, I run a 231/237 112* H/C/I on my car, using 02 Injectors, I see 100% IDC before my redline/shift point and I am over 80% at only 4500rpms. Your currently running stock 26# inj. and I am sure you'll be seeing more IDC than you think stock!
