Default Safe Duty Cycle

Hi All, Just wondering what the general rule of thumb is for the safe percentage of duty cycle for your injectors?
I have heard that while they will go to 100% it isnt the best option for someone to do this for a long period of time and should look at upgrading injectors if the duty cycle gets to high.
So what is classed as too high safely?
Any help greatly appreciated.

As ballistic said, 90% is all you'd want to go, otherwise you can run the risk of lean-out. And subsequently fakked motor!

Anywhere abobe 85-90% duty and your injectors are unable to open and close in time for the next rotation, so for a daily driver, keep it conservative, personally i go to 100% and watch what is happening in the lamba logs to see if there is any huge risks. motec.
