Default AAM stage 2 fuel system question?????

The AAM stage 2 system uses a bosch 044 big fuel pump pulling off a swirl pot that is fed from the walbro 255 intank pump. My question is as you increase base fuel pressure say from 3 to 4 bar you lose volume due to the increased fuel pressure.

If you could use the bigger (higher flowing) Bosch 044 could you run smaller injectors at a higher base fuel pressure and make the same power as larger injectors at a lower pressure?

Any one have a view on this?

Ps. This would be going into a 500 ish whp build.

that would work to a point where you max out the physical limitations of orifice flow.

cant you save a couple hundred bucks for some 600cc injectors and do it properly? Its absolutely crazy to cut corners on the fueling.
