well after doing some calculations at 85% duty cycle with the 24s...

max safe hp = [ (injector size) x (total # of injectors) x (max duty cycle) ]/BSFC
forced induced numbers....
24lb/hr x 8 injectors x 0.85/ 0.55 = 296.7 HP
or 251 HP @ 0.65 BSFC

it is do able but at higher demand theres not enough...so yea looks like I will be needing a bigger injector...at minimum a 30 @ 0.65.. 314 hp @ 85% Duty Cycle ...but that will be in the future...thanks for the heads up...

but as of right now...my the 24s are perfect for the current setup...

I think they way they get by is by raising the fuel pressure...the FMU supplied with the kit raises the fuel pressure from 40psi to im going to guess 60 and that is how the 24s are able to keep up with the extra fuel demand...so by using those same 24s and raising the pressure to 60 the new flow rate of the same 24 injector is now 29.59 lb/hr at 60psi
