running a 240rwhp miata with 1000cc injectors is not the correct way.
they might be the best injectors, but that's not correct.
running a 240rwhp miata with 550cc ID injectors WOULD be correct.
hell running a 1.6L turbo is not even correct. Mikelly, nor myself, will ever come close to maxing 1000cc injectors, let alone 725cc injectors. And if running 1000cc injectors causes bad idle problems in his case, how is that correct?
just because the solution works for you, does not make it the universal solution. I have no problems suggesting the 725cc injectors, however.

So in his case the ID725's would be the most comparable to the DW700's. The problem is that I do not think there is a price difference between the ID725's and ID1000's and if there is it is extremely minimal. So do I spend the same money on smaller injectors that will idle the same as the larger injectors?

Scott I appreciate your weighing in on this issue.
Guys I asked about injectors and regulators, and appreciate all the perspectives. I want to make sure the "right" parts for the right current setup will work the best. I have no problem spending $450 on injectors. I have a big problem spending that money on injectors that will make this car run more poorly.

Modified injectors will not do this. Also my guess is that the ev14 injector atomizing effect will be superior when the Bosch atomizing plate is left intact.
For me modified injector solutions look silly. It makes more sense to get an original Bosch part that would suit the application without having to hack the most critical and precise part off. This is especially true when you look how inexpensive suitable original injectors can be got for. Ford Racing 47lb Fuel Injectors - Set of 8 - Home for your Ford Mustang
The ev14's in the link (part 0 280 158 117) are rated at 525 cc at 43.5 psi (615 cc at 60 psi) and cost 30$ each delivered.

From what I can see, at least ID replaces the atomizing plate with a cap orifice which may explain if the performance of IDs is better than other butchered injectors.
What I'm saying is I would prefer an original unmodified bosch injector rather than any aftermarket modified one sold at the same flow rates.
