Was just curious if there would be any driveability issues with 550 injectors on a Gti-R T28+ USDM motor setup/JWT ecu I know these injectors are probably too big for my goals but from what I've been reading Greg Perry says that at 12psi on 4bar/bored maf/370cc will be pushing the limits of the injectors.

So since I'll be trying to dailydrive at 12psi and I want to also put cams in (S3/S4)down the road I want the injectors to run lower duty cycles just for safety. I like the fact that the 550's just drop in, so thats why I'm interested in them. I also like the fact that it gives me room to grow if I ever choose to.

If 370's/4bar/bored maf are ok with my plans of 12psi +cams please let me know. Also what would be the max SAFE psi on a DE 9.5 motor with 93 octane fuel???

I wouldn't go over 12psi personally. I think some guys have gone up to 15 but that's a bit risky! I'm assuming you're adding a fuel pump in there

12psi + cams = roasting 2nd

Oh yeah, 550s should be just fine. People run bigger injectors than that with no probs.

You shouldn't have any issues with the 550's. A couple of my friends run them with no issues. Soon I will be running the same set up as you. I figure 8-10 psi for dail driving and 12 psi when its time to boogie. I think you should maintain the car at about 8-10 psi for daily driving. The power will be awesome. I think we are limited to about 12 psi for safe high boost use JMHO.

I use 50lb MSDs (525cc) on a T28 setup on a daily driver. It is just fine, I can get over 30mpg on the highway. I run 10psi daily and will be bumping it up to 15psi this season at the track on 94 octane.
