I did mention that in your engine spec thread but it must have been overlooked
If you need big injectors then your going to be forced in to aftermarket management until a suitable replacement is found for 83's that you can run on Ford ECU

if your fuel pump is man enough and i ran an 8BAR one, then you can crank pressure up to max pressure minus boost pressure peak, the siemens can take extra pressure well.
the 60lb's i mentioned would do 900cc at 6BAR above boost pressure.

I virtually max'd a set at around 440 on a T series turbo which is why i wouldn't touch 55's on a GT setup
