I am looking to get some 07 STI topfeed injectors and want to sell my stock 04 injectors to recoup some of the cost. Would I be able to temporarily run the bigger injectors with the tune I have?
Ultimately I am going to run a VF39 (not installed yet), Walbro 255 (installed), the 07 STI injectors (not purchased yet), 1-step cooler plugs (not purchased yet), a Prodrive 3-port boost solenoid (not installed yet), and have Mike @ GST Protune it.
The Walbro seems to be fine as-is (actually seems better), wondering if the injectors would adapt as well to my current setup (Gruppe-S Protune, Bosal Uppipe, Prodrive 3CE, Vishnu underdrive pulley, JDM STI TMIC, STI axleback) until I can get the rest of the parts and and retuned with Mike.
LMK what you guys think...
Thanks!

You'll need a custom tune to run different injectors. Have you looked into buying the 06-07 WRX 'blue' injectors? They're actually bigger than the STIs. Or you could also mod your current injectors to flow a ton more.

I have a COBB AP which Mike @ Gruppe-S Protuned me with back in 2005. I'll just have him do it again at his new shop when it's all put together.
