Default wtf is up w/this...

story..... so I get 42lb injectors about a year before going turbo because I knew I'd be boosted..... fast forward and here I am w/ a 2bar sd tune running alcy, my ve table #'s are lower in the alcy/boost range than it was NA, does this mean I could have stayed w/the stock injectors going the same route w/the alcy? motor is stock besides valvesprings and pushrods, I'm running 11.2afr in boost and 12.9afr before 95kpa, wondering if I need to spend the extra $$ on my next turbo ls1 build or not... thanks for any of your experiences

At the very least, 42lb injectors are indeed needed. Bob
