Default injectors

Would it be a good idea to get new injectors when supercharging. What would be a good injector to buy. 4.6L

Default RE: injectors

Multiply the number of injectors by the lbs/hr rating of the injectors, then divide that by the brake specific fuel consumption. For N/A engines the BSFC range is around 0.45 - 0.55 and for turbo/supercharged engines its from 0.55 - 0.65. According to that formula, 36# injectors could support up to 523 supercharged/turbocharged HP.
