injectors for IX turbo

I have a VIII with all the bolt-ons, Kelford 272 looking for a bit more already. Thinking of upgrading to a IX turbo...just curious what size injectors would suite me best? This is my DD so keep in mind MPG is important.

Really??? MPG. I would say talk to your tuner. He can recommend a set the right size and a tune for the best fuel economy. But remember when there is power there is fuel. Don't forget the fuel pump too..

Umm stock for a IX turbo if its on gas.

Mileage is really not dictated by injector size. Its either right or its not with the tune.

This is the only valid response to the OP's query. Given pump gas, and a stock turbo(VIII, or IX) the stock, 560cc injectors will provide sufficient fuel when combined with a WALBRO 255LPH fuel pump. There is absolutely no need to upgrade the injectors when going from an VIII to a IX turbo on straight pump gas fuel.

There is absolutely no need to upgrade the injectors yet. Keep the stock ones which will work fine.
