40# Injectors Installed, Awsome!

So, after much trepidaton and research, I ordered and installed Accel 40# (385cc) units. They are 11% larger than the ones I had in the car. I wouldn't say they made the car a lot faster, but the power is now very consistant with no boost fluctutations due to detonation at all. I have not driven very much yet, and did not hook up my analog boost gauge, but the factory gauge now goes all the way to just past red (the right hand side of red!) when you stomp it and then tapers to the red/orange line at redline. It was 85* yesterday. Before it would do that, but most of the time the APC would hear knock, and then back off, not any more! I am getting a little "Idle searching," even when the car is warm, one or two bounces and then it settles down to norm. It had started to do this even before I changed the 'jectors and I got a new O2 sensor, but did not change it yet. I didn't want to violate the "One change at a time," rule. Could this the prob? Or does the ECU just need more time to adjust the idle pulse width to the larger injectors?

Mystery APC, I really am going to have to open this up and look inside.
