I wondered about this also, every tuner I talked to said that 28# injectors would be okay up to 420~430 RWHP.....anyone else have an opinion??

I have the 30# SVO's with a round 400 rwp. The tuner installed them
before tuning. He said that stock injectors are marginal at best because of
emmision concerns. Also he compared bigger injectors to multitasking on a
computer. The less work (Bigger injectors=less pulse width) tying up the CPU
to let it do other monitoring of other functions Timing, etc.
Also after he tuned the car after other 'crap" tune my mpg increased also.
hope this info steers you in the right direction.

I have the SVO 30lb injectors. They the red top and are flow tested. It gives me some more room to grow if I should change my combo one day.

I just bought SVO 30# injectors off of jason at Thunder racing. he didn't say anything about them being flow tested. is that how they come or something you have a shop do extra. if so how much does it cost and is it really neccesary? Also is "flow matched" the same thing as 'flow tested"??

BTW Mike, who did your H/C install?

PS- still no updated track times? You should definitely be in the 11's now @ probably 117-118mph I would guess...
