Will installing 24 pound injectors help
I have an opportunity to get a set of 24 pound injectors and a matching mass air unit for my car for free. I am currently sd and I have everything for the conversion, will I notice any gains or anyhting at all by doing the conversion and using the 24 lb injectors? I plan on a hci and a supercharger in the future so I will have to do it eventually, the maf that is.

Its not really worth it when you HCI swap and blow it I suggest getting a 90mm lightning MAF and a much bigger size injector. I don't thinkyou will really notice a difference, the only actual difference you can feel in a stock car with the stock heads and intake is 3.73s which you already have. I think it will just smell richer.

Your not going to gain any power just by jumping up to a larger injector (unless you're fuel limited, which you aren't). If you were planning on only doing a HCI in the future I would say go for it since your getting them for free and they would only help you in the future. Since your adding a supercharger to the mix though, 24lbs is going to be way too small to supply your setup the fuel it needs and you'll be swapping them for something bigger again anyway.

get them for free...then turn around and sell them on ebay 
thats what i would do, then you are that much closer to your final goal of supercharging you car

and run like shyt...^^^^now that would be a total waste 90mm maf and larger injectors on a fairly stock motor....you wanna swim in a puddle of fuel be my guest......no such thing as just smell richer..if it smeels richer that's because it is richer.......anyway if you want the 24's for now it won't help you in the power department..add a set of heads and cam and decent intake to where you'd need larger injectors..24's are good for a good h/c/i but when you throw boost on top of the h/c/i you'll need at least 30lb'ers and maybe then some depending on desired level of boost
