Keep an eye on the duty cycle with those injectors as you'll probably be close to maxing them out if you do make close to an honest 1k at the rear wheels.

Duty Cycle as in an injector in an engine turns on and off very quickly to control the amount of fuel delivered. Not how long the life of the injector is. It is expressed as a percent and he is saying ya may be close to 100% if near 1000whp and may at that point want to consider larger injectors. This is my loose interpretation as I'm just starting to dig into the tuning thing.

If I'm way off base someone just smack me around,

I'm not saying you don't have enough injector just what duty cycle is as I understand it. Several on here would know better what injector size and since ya had been working a bit with Arun ya could double check with him.

I can tell you this that the max duty cycle I saw while data logging on my ID 1000 injectors was 75 percent and that was only 6K engine speed. That was during the WOT tuning phase. The tune never got finished though. It takes some serious fuel to make big power reliably.

If Arun was the one that suggested it then I would feel good about running them. I talked with him a few years back when my engine let go and I can't think of a time where I have read anything but good things about him, was great with advice for me. JMHO, and, he has a ton of experience.

It will work just fine. All pre zo6 was saying is keep an eye on it. Your tuner should let you know though if your fuel system isn't up to the task.
