Default which fuel injectors

i kinda wanna know when i should buy and which injectors to buy, this is turbo situation, friend and i are finishing the kit this week and i have more $$ then i planned on having at this point so i wanted to get injectors but, i plan on running 3-4psi and use are comp and just add fuel and retard the timing a little, self tune basically, and just get the system up and operational, if everything checks out good i was going to buy a 2 stage electric boost controller kit (probably the one sts sells) and meth kit and take it to VA speed and get it dyno tuned for 6psi low boost/8psi high boost and in the future if it all works out i want to get 317 heads and up it to do about 12psi in high boost setting.

now for injectors, with the above said i was thinking 60LB injectors, now if i put 60lb ones in there when im running only 3-4psi is that going to over do it and i should wait till i plan to run 6-8? or can i get them right away?

with the plan to go that high boost is 60lbs enough? or to much for when i do the low boost in the beginning, i only want to buy one set of injectors so lol,

for those that understand basically what im doing help is appreciated, this is a turbo kit that were doing that i can slowly up grade and not drop tons of $$ at once, why i said the above like so, thanks!

Im running 60's with 7lbs and a racetronix pump and harness. My inj duty cycle is in the high 70's. Id get the 80's up front if your really planning to run more that 9 or 10lbs.
