you can use them if you want.. but 450's will get you the power you want and more

fuel mileage and scaling your maps down is a huge deal if you dont tune yourself.. you wouldnt use 1000cc injectors to make 200hp would you??

why not? I've heard about people doing this just so someone cant throw in a base map ecu to jack the car. 550's aren't even over kill, thats a safe range.
