you will need a custom tune in order to use those injectors. IMO not worthwhile at all considering they wont bump up your power levels

30LB injectors are the right size for a T25 or T28 turbo, small/cheap turbo Smile

Just as a means to comparison, my JRSC BBK was spec'd for 42lb injectors which is one of the reasons the ECU had to be re-programmed as part of the upgrade.

i see , i would like to replace them sooner or later ... i think there due for a replacing . I think im understanding now , the svt comes factory tuned for the 30lb injectors ..correct...? what would be the worst case scenario be if i were to put 30lbs in there? Im assuming they would still work ? but they wouldnt be as effiecient for the tune im running? and wouldnt be worth it as jamie said becuase there isnt enough power being put out for them to take full effect? lol i think im finally understanding. correct me if im wrong

Shouldn't be a problem. The real key to making more power is to flow more air - both in and out - the ideal fuel to air ratio never changes and so dumping more fuel into the cylinders simply doesn't work without adding the appropriate increase in air.

Even with a supercharger at 8 psi and 42 lb injectors my stock Zetec fuel pump has no problem delivering enough fuel and I've heard of turbo Zetecs making much more power being fueled by the stock pump.

The point though, is that installing larger capacity injectors without also flowing considerably more air, is basically an exercise in futility; not only will you not make more power you will probably create some driveability problems as the computer tries to maintain the proper fuel/air ratio.

By all accounts the PowerWorks sc was available with a special tune for automatics that reduced the stress on the soft parts - but they're out of business now so you'll have to find a used one somewhere; and then of course the tuning might be an issue unless Randy or someone can support it.
