Do i need to get any thing for my fuel system or will it be ok with that little amount of boost? My fuel system is stock.
Thanks for any help given ahead of time .
please give me your full opinion if you answer my question cause i dont want to **** any thing up on my car cause it cant handle the boost.

1) Do a leakdown test to make sure you won't have blowby.
2) Yes you will need to upgrade your fuel system. To be safe get 30# injectors for a stock motor, 36-42# for a modified motor, a bigger fuel pump...I have a 190, but I also have a FMU. If you aren't upgrading your injectors, you WILL need a FMU.
3) Get an ignition with a Boost Retard. I have the MSD-6BTM, and love it....make sure you get a rev limiter for 6000 rpm too, cause over spinning will burn the bearings out on the powerdynes.
**How many miles do you have, and what are your current mods?
