750's would be fine. I'm running 850's on my maxed out stock turbo and am wishing I would have gotten 650's instead.

If you're already changing your injectors and you'll be tuning for the new turbo anyway, why not get 1200's and go with E-85? Is it available where you're at?

i thought about it but i currently dont have the money for the set up since ide have to go with the map switch alarm box and the zeitronix set up. maybe in a couple months from now plus the nearest bump station is like 40 miles away and i dont know if i would want to be having to take the trip out there everytime i needed gas.

No general rule. You have to look at IPW and IDC in your datalogs this will tell you how close you are to maxing them out.

You can scale 1200's to run on 91
