Default Injectors

Possibly looking at getting some injectors. What hp rating would be good with the setup that I have in my sig? Or should I do a different mod first?

Yup what Dustin said but the bigger the injector the worse the milage but it's only a few miles per gallon. Stock= 23mpg 60=20mpg 90=18mpg Also what are your future plans?

That's not totally true. Most injectors up to 100hp get better mileage than stock injectors. If you can keep your foot out of it

we have had great luck with 50-60hp nozzles getting better then stock milage but anything over that it starts to go down.

I have 150k miles on the stock set.. Is it wise to put nozzles on sets with high mileage? Right now I get right at 24.5 mpg round trip to Ogden Utah cruise set at 70mph. I would like some more power for sure without my egt's climbing too high while pulling my travel trailer. Possible without a bigger turbo?

as long as you stay with the 50-60 hp ones on the stock charger you will be fine on egts. as long as your not having injector problems now then you should be good just swapping nozzles.
