Default Injector questions

With my current setup i'm making 400rwhp with about 4-5psi and i'm going to run 12-15psi here shortly with my P1SC. Do you guys think my 42lb injectors will be able to handle this, and will i be safe to run on pump gas (91)?

15 PSI on 42s? No way! What numbers are you after?

Each injector supports roughly 77hp. So, depending on where you want to be, do the math, then divide by 20% to get your rough wheel HP level.

Hint: they will support ~493rwhp.

Agreed, I have 42 lb injectors now and I see about 85-88% duty cycle at only 7 psi.

I don't really have a power goal, but I have already recieved my new pullies from exotic performance plus and I told them I wanted to be between 12-15psi. and this winter i'm going to upgrade to a D1SC and that will be it for me as far as performance goes. What kind of gains do you guys think I should expect to get from this pully swap? Oh and btw I have an auto with a 3000 stall.
