like the subject says just trying to find out how far they (red stipes 38lb) can take me on my current set up that is in my sig.
 
Red stripes are 40's. And depends on a lot of other factors. Injector wise.. mid-high 11's ? 114-117 MPH

Boost, timing, fueling..tune..play a major part

Some can say run em static and get a car into the 10's.. A lot depends on how far you want to push them.
 
I believe there are two versions of the red stripes. The old style (junkers) that shot a big single stream of fuel like a garden hose, were actually 40's.
The newer ones (different MFR) was a 38#, with a nice conical spray pattern.

I took 36# blue tops to high 11's, with room to go further. The same injectors went 11.6's in the car I bought them from.

But as was already mentioned, it depends on how hard you want to push 'em, per duty cycle. I'd say mid 11's is far enough with them.
 
Yup, I agree.

Red stripe injectors went 11.60's in my car. More importantly was the mph @ 119. But like you've already read, you're pushing them in that range.
