That is the reason for higher fuel pressures being used. Better emissions is the main reason. Very small power increase are simply a bonus.

I use injectors from FAST in mine.
Was Testing LS1 and LT1 Injectors
The LS1 Injectors misted better than the LT1 using same fuel pressure.
Couple LT1s Injectors clogged up causing fuel delivery issues.
So went with LS1 Injectors...direct replacement for the LT1's.

If you increase the Fuel Pressure and not Change the MAP.
They Injectors will only supply the fuel in the MAP.
May get a finer mist but the PCM would eventually relearn and provide the fuel the computer was programmed.
