The stock 370cc injectors are rated at about 270whp at ~56 psi of fuel pressure (factory 34 + 2 bar absolute pressure) on the T28. However with the larger turbocharger he is running he will flow every bit of 270whp at even 8 psi due to the larger compressor wheel. Running 14 psi would yeild him more power than the injectors are able to resolute. He also will outrun his MAF's maximum resolution capacity at anything over about 10 psi.
I personally will never put a larger turbo on my engine until I have a nice set of 740's to match.
