Default Injector swap

I am looking to increase injector size for my lq4 swap project. I am considering a couple of bosch injectors that I can get for a good price: 0280156201 (36#) or 0 280 155 831 (30#).

Harness is not built yet so connector type can be adapted. I am running aftermarket intake/fuel rails so I don't believe height will be an issue either. My question is can I pretty much swap in any high impediance EV1/EV6 multiport bosch injector with sufficient flow? Will a tuner run in to difficulty setting up pcm for either of these?

if you can either find or get any data on them that would make tuning much easier. Either would work in your setup. I would go more for the 36# to leave some room

Thanks Z, I guess I should have asked in the OP: which injector data is actually required by GM ECU/tuner?

IFR is pretty straightforward, rating @ x PSI, then what are you running them at pressure wise compared to their rating. *look at my fuel & injector sticky, if you don't understand PM me and we can hash it out.

then offset table, short pulsewidth, minimum pulsewidth, a few others
