Default what injector for 1200hp

with my new turbo setup im going to need bigger injectors but not sure how big. I drive my car on the street all the time so something with good street manners and ability to run on the stock computer is a must. what are my options and what parts do i need?

Do the math..I think the equations are in the fuel forum.
Hp is fwhp, or rwhp?
For accuracy, I'd stay w/ fw.....

Thanks, that's a nice easy chart.Going by fwhp I'm looking at 1600cc. How is something that big going to idle and drive around on the street?

Well tuned with good injector it will be fine.

1600 seems big for regular gas for that power. Like said i'm at around 1200 whp thru a th400 on vp110 with fic 127's at closer to 50 psi base pressure. Fic 127 is like 1300 cc

FIC 2000s, e85, 1315rwhp, right around 75-80 injector duty cycle at full tilt.

I have had the injectors for 3years with no issues thus far.
