You can work out the rough bhp capacity of the injectors by cc/min X 5 divide by number of injectors, so in your case 380 x 5 =1900 divide by 4 = 475bhp.
So I think you're safe!

as above, you'll see 300bhp, not a great deal more, but depends on efficiency of the engine.

380cc/min at 3bar pressure with a 16.5 to 18ohms impedance. Made by Lucas. MJY10023.

Was looking into them a little for a mate the other day.

Sorry yes, I wrote it down wrong, you take the cc/min divide by 5, then multiply answer by number of injectors,
380 divide 5 = 76 x 4 = 304
This is a rough estimate.

basically just multiply one injector flow rate by 0.80 so it gives you an approximation of power.
