I am sorry to reply to this in metric system. If the engine were a Japanese
one, as a way of a for instance a Toyota =), I would say 440cc/min. injectors
would do fine. What is cool with good old AFM's is that if you run an AFM
instead of MAP sensor and programmed EFI you can match the % increase of your
injectors volume delivery to the % increase of a bigger AFM without having to
tell your EFI computer. Now, that's for ignoramuses like me. 

The other way around is that, like I stated a few days earlier, I would like
to know how to fiddle with FI programming and mixture curves, and know
absolutely nothing from the word go to this kind of modifications. Any suggestions?
