Keep the injectors?

Mods are in signature. I installed FIC 1050 with the plan of goine E85 but now changed my mind. I'm not planning to mod the engine or anything else, just want to use what I have decent power. Would I still benefit from the injectors or should I go back to stock ones?

If you're sticking to normal pump gas, then you have no need for the larger injectors. Sell them, pocket the money and call it a day.

Remove and rescale the injectors won't be worth it.
Those that you have are fine.

Folks you are reading the question wrong. His plan was to switch to e85 hence the larger injectors. Now he decided to stick with regular pump gas so the question is, will he benefit from the larger injectors? The simple answer is no he will not. The stock injectors will not be maxed out thus its a waste of ~$300 as they will be doing him absolutely no good. That $300 bucks will be much better back in his pocket to help pay for gas, oil changes, coffee, sandwiches, beer etc etc

if its not self tuned, than you'll waste more money having to rescale and do another 91 fuel map/ tune. Keep them if this is the case.
