Injector worry for turbo

My installer has 42# injectors he wants to use for my setup on wednesday. I was using an injector calculator and the way i figure it to make 250whp on that size of injector will require me to run them at 96% duty cycle. As far as i know they should be tuned only using 80% duty cycle. Is this gonna be a huge deal? Or should it work okay for a while till upgrade to more power?

well, my installer says 42 should be perfect for a 4 cylinder so i hope he knows what hes talking about. he said the atomization of bigger injectors isnt so great for 4 cylinders with the idle
