Go with the Siemens 60s. Bob at EPP has them at a good price. And hell yeah you need to tune for them. The 60s should not be hard to tune for a competent tuner.

if you go that much larger you will need a re-tune as it will run rich as crap.

are you sure you just don't need some 60#ers? what power are you making? have you seen my excel sheet and checked out rcengs website?

i just don't want you getting to large an injector and running rich at idle and other areas with low airflow and wondering why

Yo!

Please note:
Most injectors will max out at 80% duty cycle and this is the accepted industry standard.

I did not make this up! This is from SAE - Society of Automotive Engineers.
