I know you dont have a tune as of yet, and im not trying to be an ******* and say your going to blow it up. But i am curious to know how much boost you can push with the stock fuel system before it starts getting dangerous, keeps up posted :wave:

its not boost its cfm!!!.. i hate that question..... im pushing 550cfm.. plannin on running 14psi.. mind you that for every 1psi of boost the fuel pressure is raised by 12psi.... so i dunno what to tell u about the stock injectors with out an fmu... probably not much boost at all. and im not planning on haveing a tune at all just keeping a eye on the spark plugs.. but sofar 10psi on a 16g turbo with the fmu and im still runin on the rich side at 8k rpm (which is good.. better a tad on the rich side than a tad on the lean side)

Tick tock, tick tock... Just a matter of time now. The stock fuel injectors will let you down. In addition, IF you do high boost, you're going to crack/melt pistons quickly with the stock tuning.
