I want to say they are 480cc. On a 2.5 L block I would say they would be running near the ragged edge past 16 psi.

But this is just me talking.

no your right there 480cc. And the ecu you will only allow 17.8psi unless you have a utec you can turn up the boost but dont know how much the injectors can handle.

No, US STi has side feed injectors. The "pinks" are top feed.

= wont work.

I try. There are some aftermarket injectors out for STi. I think they are ~800cc or so. Potential for a decent amount of power.

You could just use a WRX topfeed rail to allow the STI pinks to work....

enigne management pretty much is a must have, but with more fuel going in that means you can turn up the boost and get more horsepower that way.

Only reason to increase injector size is to run larger turbos and obviously requires fuel management. It is a means to an end but does not offer any advantages on the stock turbo.

so what would be an upgrade from the stock 04 Sti injectors? Also, are there any link for the mods people are doing now to the Sti?

I am thinking of doing a trade in, and using most of my parts to make a faster Sti, since I am almost there...minus the 2.5.

pe 650 or 800 or you can mod the stock injectors through perrin here is a link http://www.perrinperformance.com/pro.../injectors.htm. All wrx parts are interchangable except the fuel system side.

I know of another place that does this. So I dont have to waist money on bigger injectors...I can have my stock ones made bigger..right? (from either company)

yeah the only thing is once you do it your stick with it. So your stock will be changed to about 800cc if modded, i would suggest get them bench test for tuning with the utec that way you have a more precise number of max cc. Heres the link to have them tested if you do modify the stock http://www.rceng.com/service.htm.
