Default Mfi injector upgrade?

Just wondered if there is any upgrade from the standard injectors on the mfi system? I know the best way would be to convert to efi or run a 5th injector but i was just curious to know?. Some guy was claiming he was running bigger jets on a zvh conversion running the mfi system

you can do it - but there is little point

The std items can flow all the fuel you need, the problem is metering such large amounts of fuel correctly. This is where an Mf2 comes into its own.

Just to point out - if u had a race only car - then you could use the bigger injectors. It would run very rich off boost, but thats not an issue when ur flat out all the time.
