  Actually I think both time at 1.00 or maybe the Na time at .95 but 
then NA pumps time at .88, 1.15 and .95 and it has to do with the 
cam plates not the injector pressures.  Since liquids are basiclly 
non compressable (for the most part), it's highly unlikely the timing 
will really change since it's not set by pressure.  In theory it takes 
longer to built that bit more pressure but it seems to be pretty minimal. 
The biggest change I can see would be slightly less fuel for what the 
pump's set for.  Higher pressure injectors will close earlier than NA set 
injectors thus less fuel.  Shouldn't be anything big, just like any 
change in timing.  I'd run them.
