check out my sts build. I still have the 60mm (60-1)
YOU WILL NOT NEED 60# injectors, they are too much for what you are wanting.
grab you some 42# or some 50# injectors....
I'm running 5psi, making 423HP 431TQ (NO INTERCOOLER) and only running my injectors at 67% duty cycle..and they can go to 85% easily even 90%
if you want all the injector calculator stuff let me know, I have an excel sheet that shows you it all

Yep, 60's will work fine....that's what I'm running. As far as tuning, the VE tables are easier to manipulate on the 01-02 cars. You can rewrite the 01-02 operating system on the 98 PCM. Did that with a 00 car I tuned for a friend using HP Tuners. Worked great

Only a 98 non segmented flash file, can be written to a 98 pcm.

You guys that are running larger injectors with no issues...what have you done to achieve this? Did you just throw the injectors in and go without tweaking the ECU? I'm installing an STS kit with T67 at 5 psi and was either going to go with 42 or 60 lb injectors. Current fuel pump is a Walbro GSS342. Will the car idle fine and run fine when not in boost if either injectors are simply installed without tuning? I have EFILive V1 which I'm still learning to use and an LC-1 wideband which isn't hooked up. I've read some stuff over on the EFILive board and on this board about injector scaling. It seems that some people have installed larger injectors and done nothing else and their cars idle/run fine. Then there's others who have all sorts of issues with rich idling and such and end up having to play with IFR tables. Should I just install the 42 or 60 lb injectors along with everything else and see how they run without scaling the injectors? Or should I immediately scale the injectors using the injector flow rate calculator spreadsheet? I want my car to have a safe a/f ratio in boost but I also don't want my car to run like butt out of boost getting crappy mileage.
