Default What size injector is correct for hp rating?

I've read that just because the injector says 100hp doesn't mean it actually gives 100hp. I read that the size 17 x .xx dictates the amount of power. So does anybody know what injectors woul give this accurate ratio? Like the 100 hp injector would be equal to 17 x .xx

We rate our injectors by the amount of flow.

17 x xx, or 7 x xx? To my understanding, the first number is the number of holes, followed by size of holes. A 7x14 would have 7 holes, 0.014" each, I believe.
