Well, you'll need a good tuning device to control these injectors, and a fuel pump capable of feeding them. A 255 lph pump ought to be enough to feed these injectors with a little capacity to spare.

Bigger fuel injectors don't add any horsepower.

I don't know what you mean by "what are the best ways to keep up with the air delivery".

Ohhh boy....

What is your set up.

Do you have aftermarket heads, cam, intakes, maf, tb?

Are you blow, turboed, or spraying the car?

Throwing injectors in wont add hp. If you max smaller injectors out, a new bigger set of injectors when TUNED can free up hp.

You need to asnwer questions.

I think you've got the equation backwards. Fuel is going to be added based on how much air is coming into the motor.

If you've got the fuel capacity, and you're trying to get more air in, you can minimize your air restrictions (more open air filter, bigger piping, bigger throttle body, etc), or you can shove it in there with boost.

BWAAAHHAAAA this has to be one of the stupidest goals I have ever heard. Do you have any mods done to the car? Injectors are not to give you HP. They are a supporting mod to help your HP mods get what they need.

I think I understand the confusion. Consider a fire burning in a pit, as you add more combustible material, the fire draws in more air and the flame gets bigger. A car engine does not work that way. A gasoline car engine is like an air pump. It can only pass a specific amount of air. You have to add a very specific amount of fuel to that volume of air to maintain a target air/fuel ratio. You can add as much fuel as you want but the air volume is not going to go up so the extra fuel will not burn. The only way to get your engine to pump more air is with more cubic inches, force it in with boost, less restrictive exhaust/intake, more rpm etc.. You will only need larger injectors when the current ones can not supply enough fuel to maintain the right A/F ratio for the amount of air being brought into the engine.
