Default Injector Sizing

I've been looking at going with a 80lbs Bosch injectors for a turbo truck, I was wondering if there would be any harm in upping to there next size injector 95lb 1000cc just to make sure I ha e enough injector for future use. Truck is a stock bottem end 5.3, 243 heads and cam, planning on going with a 76mm turbo for now, just looking for 600rwhp, but in the future would like to go bigger between 7-800rwhp, 91 octane and meth if need be, that the highest octane we have around here and no e85. I just wasn't sure if there would be any problems with running a bigger injector ol even though I don't need it right now.

Those 80's should outlast your motor. 80lb at what pressure? 800rwhp is over 1000 flywheel and on a stock 5.3 that's asking quite a bit. Not that it won't do it but.....

When I shoot for the 800 rang it'll more than likely be on a 6.0 or bigger motor.

Youll be fine with the 96s as long as you have the data for them for your tuner to plug in.

Just so I'm clear, these are the injectors I'll be purchasing. There is no need for adapters because the EV14 is the direct plug and play for our trucks correct? 2005 5.3

I would go with the smallest injectors that meet your HP goal with some extra headroom.
