You can make 24 lb work if necessary, but you'll have to increase the pressure under boost using an FMU, and may end up pushing the injectors beyond the 80% cycle, which will shorten their life.
You would probably better off with 30 lb injectors. To know for sure, it would be best to put the car on a chasis dyno with an airflow ratio sensor and see where your at to start with, and go from there.
The right way would be to have the chip mapped for fuel and timming with the proper size injectors, and not have to depend on an FMU, but to do so you'll need to be running a 2 or 3 bar map sensor in order to sense boost. What are you running right now a MAF or MAP sensor ?
