I beleve it doesn't matter how much boost you're running. What matters is how much air is being pushed in the motor.

inj's are rated at hp ratings.

26 #ers are good for approx. 420-430 from what i hear(2000 ls1's) and 28 #ers are good for 460-470 rwhp or so.

i had stock 26#ers in my t/a when i had 425 rwhp.

Yeah. Instead of searching for boost and injectors. Try horsepower and injectors. Then search may prove to be your friend.

if your running any boost at all, its the safe thing to get larger injectors.
