2002 car - going to run 10psi and maybe even 12 but probably not.
As I learn more about FI and injectors I wonder if I need the 550's that came with my XEDE? My calculations say that 460's or 440's should be ok.
Will I get better idle with a smaller injector?
If it matters I am in a cold climate and will see -15 to -30c for 2 months so very cold starts are the norm in winter if that plays into the injector size.

I actually don't have them in the car yet, so I am making assumptions but I had read here and there that you don't want too big of an injector. I am in the final stages of gathering the last bits of my setup and was about to send these off for a cleaning by Deatschwerks. I thought a final question about their place in my build goals would now be the appropriate time to ask.

Landrew..you are in Edmonton correct? Fuel Injection Plus in the southside of Edmonton, I heard does top notch work according to the local car enthusiast forums..I'm sending my RX7 RC 550cc's to them soon. Would be quicker and save you on shipping and time.

That happens so often, you go to reply, think about what you want to say and how to say it, make some spelling changes and then post 7 min later forgetting that the thread and the world does not go on hold while you are making up a post.
No worries.

I called them up for prices in November of 2009. They said something about at the most is 30 per injector I believe. That includes the initial and after flow testing. I have an acquaintance that drove a yellow turboed crx and he recommended the place to me. It seems thats where most guys in Edmonton go to as well.
Heres a quick google. Fuel Injection Plus - Google Maps
If you are in need of a T25 off of a S13 SR20DET (Equiv. to a Garret 2554, but journal instead of ball bearing)..Let me know! I just got my hands on a T28.
