I pesonally didn't mind getting rid of the extra
injectors.  It's one less failure area, and less stuff
under the hood.  I have yet to outflow my 50#'ers,
close, but not quite.  The car runs really well in all
areas, so don't be afraid to put large injectors in. 
If you're going to to an extra, use the dual table MS
code so it's only on when needed, and watch your
mixture by checking plugs.  Air and fuel flow
different so there is a chance that even with the best
atomization, you might run lean in spots.  One of my
next projects is to start playing with cyl timing
trims to compensate for the different levels of water
that are reaching each cyl when on boost.
