Problems with big injectors?

I'm thinking of going to some 180 injectors, but when I went to the 100 hp injectors the truck doesn't start quite as well. I'd like the extra power but hesitant. I'd like your experience with these.

With the right amount of air you should and a really good cp3 or duals you should be able to hit 700+ with the injectors you already have.

What else are you using for power on that rig? You should fill out your signature so we know what your truck is and what you've got going on. I know you have a set of DPS Compounds. Just not sure how the rest of your truck is setup.

Thanks for the info on how to set myself up on this system, I had entered truck info in the profile, so I thought that would display. I now entered the signature.

As to the injectors I've had em for a year or so, and the issue was there from the day I installed them so I'm just checking to see if that's normal, if not I'll go to the 180's, and dual cp3's, cuz with the twins now my EGT's have a ton of room for more power.

At least that'll be the excuse to my wife. Honey I had to get new injectors.

sorry for my ignorance but what size are flux 2.4's and are just tips or whole injectors.

I really want to go bigger now I can, but I don't want to make the starting any worse.
