any downside to running bigger injectors than u need ? (96#)

So I learned that 50#ers wont quite cut the cheese ...
Im gonna buy the accceleronics box and look for low z injectors

ive found some 96 and 160 # injectors for quite cheap .... so im wondering if the OBDI can make short enough pulsewidths to make the car idle and drive properly with injectors that big

what u guys think is the top limit for a mild street car ? i dont want to have any tuning issues ... as this is a "STREET" car .. and im planning on making 600 rwhp down the road off the boost ... then some spray if needs be

thanx

Fuel Pressure is also a factor. lower the pressure down to 35psi, and you can effectively cut the injector down in size so to speak....

160s I wouldn't even bother with, though you may be able to make a set of 96s work, 72s would probably be your better bet.

Exactly, on my car with the 72#/hr injectors, I set it up with about 36psi fuel pressure. This allow my car to idle really well.

Did you ask Jeff also.

good luck
