I'm going to do a full fuel system with -8 feed stock feed as a return a walbro 400 and a regulator with fuel rails.

Does that seem adequate?

last dyno pull was 610 rwhp on a mustang dyno seeing 95% duty cycle. honestly i think its making a little more than that as its trapping 3-4 mph faster now than when it was consistently pulling 580-590 rwhp. problem isnt the injectors though

I would just do 80# injectors if I were you. It gives you more room to grow instead of being so limited and there really isnt much of a price difference between the 60# and 80# injectors, so you might as well just get the 80's.

My power goal is the 700 range. Plus or minus. And I know its good to have room to grow but this is an end goal for my car. I don't plan to go bigger. I set a limit for myself and I wanna keep it.

I need to do some work on my fuel setup as well. I have twin 255's in tank, run through the factory line to a set of custom fuel rails and 60# injectors. I know I'm already at about as far as I can go with this setup. I guess it's time I step up to a dedicated line and regulator as well.
I'm running~15psi of boost and seeing north of 85% idc, but I'm also spraying a good bit of methanol/water.

I said that at one time as well. Now I just came to terms that my car will never be fast enough or look good enough lol. I understand you have an end goal, but why not just spend a few more dollars, literally, to get something you know will work instead of guessing and hoping the 60# injectors work.

No boost referenced regulator here. No dyno or track times either, just a fun street car. I need to toss it on a dyno just to make certain my tune is good and get a point of reference for future plans.

This is very true. You do make a good point about that. And 80's only cost a little more. If I do go bigger I would have them but I wasn't sure about the the injectors since I am new to the forced induction world.

You can find good deals on ebay. Just make sure you get them with the right connector.
