Mixed messages

So I've been having mixed messages about my injector size. I'm running an aquamist hfs-3 meth kit with 50/50 mix, and I called a tuner and he said I have to upgrade my injectors to atleast 1000cc injectors before he will tune it. Then others say I shouldn't have to because of the meth. He also said I would make no where even close to 400 which is what I'm shooting for.

My mods are

Bbk full turbo
Gsc s1 cams
Ets licp
3" turbo back (catless)
Walbro 255lph
Map 02 dump
Hallman mbc
Aquamist hfs3
Act 2600

Your tuner is obviously an idiot if he says you will not make 400. I make 400 on stock turbo no problem. But that was on the standard Dynojet. If you are running stock injectors then you do need to upgrade them.

Hah, why would you go small when even the most massive injectors these days can drive and idle like stock?

What he said. Oh, and you can make 400 without meth (which is what you should do, especially if 400 is your goal).

I understand where your coming from but huge injectors aren't what I need for my particular setup.

Thanks I'll shoot for that, but if I can add 50 or so more with meth, I won't mind.

Do yourself a favor and stay far away from that tuner you called. 750s will be fine on pump with meth . If you look to E85 down the road though obviously you'll need bigger
