I would find out how much boost you can safely run, find out how much power that will equate to, and then choose your injectors based off of you fuel demands from that hp level.

the p1sc is the base supercharger that leaves you wanting more boost. My buddy got one w/ twin intercoolers. it slipped so he put the upgraded belt kit on it, then he wanted more boost so he put a diff pulley on it. then broke the crank on the snout
when we put the system on, the sc had to be reclocked so things would line up so beware. we put it all on with a lift so that was a big help the fmu kinda of sucked get a walbro/boost apump and a GOOD tune

Meaning it's their weakest kit (in regards to power potential).

42# injectors should be able to support ~537hp.

meh turbo is alot of hassle unless you're looking for big numbers imo

if you know what you're doing their great but from the sound of it this guy is better off with a self contained kit. unless if he wants to go STS which I'm not a big fan of

I thought the kit that came with the LT1 ran 8 lbs. I have 42 lb injectors, and I know they handle around 500, you may need bigger injectors depending on what else you have done to the car. I'm sure you'll love the charger though. Good luck!
