I am hesitant on suggesting it but i`ll do it anyhow. Took a trip with the 900 and had the 30 lb installed and they got an atrocious 150mph, it just so happened I had a set of 9-3 or 9-5 injectors with me so on the return trip I tossed them in. I don't know the lb of them but they get around 250mph and the oem got me 320 so I`m guessing they are around 20lb.
The next morning at the crack of dawn I went out to start up the car and it had a rock solid 550rpm. I thought screw it ill go in and get my coffee and lock up the house. it was about 7 min later I returned to the car and it still was at a solid 550rpm. reason I mention this is because my car for the life I owned it never ever had a solid 550 cold idle, its low,. very low but if my car ever hit 550 it would immediately go into idle hunting and stall, its what I was expecting it to do when I went to get my coffee.
the 9-5 fuel injector has 4 holes spraying fuel the 900 has one, might I suggest thoroughly cleaning your injectors, if your planning on taking them out and soaking them over night don't use a hot solvent like toluene because the injector has a plastic screen in them and to hot of a solvent will melt them.

Reason I'm hesitant on mentioning this is because the morning the car was started was the day it was going in storage, I didn't have time to experiment with it.
