Default What fuel upgrades do I need for 8lbs of boost

About to run a d1sc on 8lbs and might eventually up the boost to 16lbs down the road. What fuel upgrades do i need to support this. i should be around 525whp. ive already got 60lb injectors and will be getting an adjustable fuel pressure regulator. could i get away with a walbro 255 and a boost a pump or do i need more or less. your advice is greatly appreciated guys!!!

I have the Racetronix pump kits in stock. They will support 550rwhp forced induction. These are ideal for the 8# setup.

I offer a dual kit if you want to buy once & build for the future.

Feel free to call if you want to discuss in more detail.

I think it would be a good idea to do Lonnies dual intank and then upgrade the lines later on. Thats just my opinion. Eventually your gonna want more, its hard not to want more with a procharger, ask me how i know. lol

The injectors you have now should be able to support up to 700hp, so you should be good on that front.

You should get more out of those injectors than that.

Are they 60lb injectors at 43.5psi or 58psi?
