    Just some math should get you pretty close.
    BTW those injectors are barely if at all bigger than the factory units.

    39lb rating is 39.5 psi so at our higher fuel pressure should actually flow pretty good

    Injectors are rated at the same pressure though.

    You're correct fuel pressure increase generally leads towards a higher amount of fuel the injector can flow (more lb/hr) like flake said though you won't gain much more headroom on those at the factory rating.

    33lb to 41.5lb is enough for me to not be over 100% IDC and at $130 for 8 injectors it was the right price...yes not a huge gain in some peoples eyes but a gain none the less

    80% is what you need to not go over

    I'm return less as well. However fuel system has nothimg to do with max duty cycle. You can go over 80% IDC however its the point at which injectors usually go static and the failure probability factor goes way up. You goal should always be 80% IDC at wot.

    Nobody has the correct ipw pid definition for 04+ so you are not going to be able to figure out what your idc is. 39s are good for most anything a m90 cam generate for airflow.
