Default possible stage 2 rosewood injectors

if i get stage 2 injectors and have them detuned for the time being and still drive the truck daily with the stock turbo and hpop will that hurt anything? or should i wait until i can get it all at once?

How much does your reburn cost?
I know people will jump all over me for saying this but...
CONSIDER hybrids. get a reburn to make them similar to stage 2 (or anything you dare).
When you can afford a turbo, you could reburn for up to 205cc without upgrading your HPOP. If you still want more, upgrade the hpop and reburn to 238 or 250 or whatever the extent of your hybrids is. As impatient and broke as I am, I wish I would have gone this route.

Thanks Joe... Thats a good link, its geared to superdutys for the most part but its still very effective.

Whats your HP goal?

I ran stage 2's back in the day on an OBS completely stock otherwise, just a superchips programer... Ran fine.

around 400 but, i really can only afford injectors right now, so eventually 400 but i want to take the next step toward that by getting the injectors that will give me the hp without melting me down when i have a heavy load.

180/100 injectors will get you to the 400hp goal, and still work fine with your stock turbo and HPOP.

Any reason not to get 238/100 's and tuning for 180/100's?

If he is not wanting more then 400hp there is no reason to. At least not in my opinion.

400 is the goal for right now, but if i can get injectors that can handle more that i can turn up when i have the supporting mods i don't see why not to get those, unless there is some big downfall to the hybrid injectors.
