Injector size for turbo? Looking for some guidance for picking injectors. Right now I have a 2001 LS1 motor that I am adding a turbo to. All internal are stock except cam, which is a turbo cam. I can't remember off hand what turbo I have lined up (it's on my work computer 
) belive it's a 60 series or so. Was planning to run 5-7lbs of boost.
Opinions??
Thanks

Running stock internals will set you at a maximum reliable 500-550rwhp with a good tune. In that power range you would be best suited with some 42lb injectors. IMO a T76 is a bit overkill for the power you are after. You would get a much quicker spool with a smaller turbo i.e. T61 or T67.
you can do the stock injectors til 450-475rwhp then the duty cycle of them is too high....if you plan on making alot more later skip over the 42#ers and get the 60#ers so u have room to grow and dont have to buy twice.

OK, found the turbo. It'a a Master Power GT45. I talked with Jose at Forced Inductions a few times and that is the one we came up with.
So I will at least go with the 42's. Before I outgrow that turbo I would have to get a new rear axle and transmission. Not quite ready to do that
