Default NA-T build: Goal is 300 whp. Injector selection

All,

I am new to these cars. I am trying to learn more. I come from the OE+ (Original Equipment +) school-of-thought. I like upgrading a car with as many parts from more performance-oriented cars within the brand. Obviously in the SC300's case, the Supra.

I'm looking to build an SC300 one day to be around 300 WHP. The Drift Motion NA-T kit seems like a great choice for my plans. http://www.driftmotion.com/product-p/dm1361.htm

Based
on my research, the injector size for the 2JZ-GE is 250cc. Would I need injectors at around 300-330cc?

I saw some posts about using a certain range of year WRX/STi injector.

I wanted to see what the more experienced Cl's think about options/suggestions.

Thanks!

Why even bother with any of this for 300whp..... Just get a nice 98 SC400 and do the basic performance mods to it, pretty sure that will be in that area, far cheaper and a much better car than a beat up SC300 with an ebay turbo kit.

My goal is around 300-350 too. Will you be just bolting it on with stock ECU, no headgasket upgrade and low boost (<8 psi)?

Budget, low boost setups rarely stay that way. People wind up doing everything multiple times as I did. I am on my 4th ECU and 3rd set of injectors (and third re-tune). Save some bread and build yourself something nicer from the jump instead of building and rebuilding everything better because it's underwhelming or just sucks. A turbo kit is too complex to mess with for 300hp. There is lots to go wrong. You need mostly the same parts for 400-500hp if your tranny can handle it. Do ARP stud and TT gasket as cheap insurance for the future.

stock injectors are 330cc and can handle a little boost. really you need 440cc injectors and a tt ecu. check out the tt ecu mod sound like what you are looking for.
