Default 2 questions

1. Easy one--what is the difference between polished rims and chrome?
2.Along with my current mods,I am going to put AFR heads, E303 cam, 190 lph fuel pump on but probably put a blower on by the end of the year---can I get away with 30# injectors with just the above mentioned without the blower or will I have to get 24s for now then upgrade? I dont really want to buy 24s then pay another 2-300 for 30s......Thanks all!!

poolished is stainless steel polished to a mirror shine. something to be chrome goes through a big process first dipped in copper, then dipped in nickel, and chrome is actually a clean/blueish coating that brings out the shine in the nickel. anyway polished usually last longer. chrome takes more matinance or it will rust and get all nasty looking

You could probably get away with the stock injectors for now, but if you want to upgrade just upgrade now and have it tuned down. I wouldnt buy 24s and then 30s. Might wanna look into 42lbers.
