Fuel Injector upgrade

Does anyone know the cc on our injectors? Putting my list together on turbo and couldn't find any info on the injectors as I will need to upgrade them along with the pump. Turbo isn't 100% yet but its on the list of next mods.

2008 Mercedes C300
Not to burst your bubble, but are you really going to attempt this on a c300? If i remember correctly our cars have very low compression which is gonna be a bizznatch. gonna have to do lots internally or this car will be done for in no time. Someone, please correct me if im wrong on this!

Actually it's the opposite no? The 300+ family is running high compression. Low compression would actually be better for turbo's.

Correct. The C350 was raised from 10.7 to 12.2. Engines with high compression that are then subjected to boost have a higher probabily of early detonation.
