Quick Injector Question

Im looking to get some new injectors for my 87 GTA and i was wondering if there is any notice in performance increase. Im getting them because i plan on supercharging and it only requires 24lb but should i go with 30 for better flow will there be any difference. Also some reccomendations on some injectors thanks alot

You won't notice a performance increase with bigger injectors unless your motor needs it.
A set of 24lb Accel or Ford motorsport injectors should be OK but with a supercharger you could get away with running 30lbers.
Just make sure you burn a new chip for them!

Unless you told the person that burned your chip that you are using 30lb injectors then it isn't set up for them.

so maybe i should just get 24lb ones that way i dont have to spend the extra cash for no performance increase, because if i get 24lb i dont have to change the chip correact?

You won't have to change it but your car would run better if you did. You should get a new one when you add your SC so maybe you can do it at the same time.
