Default 60 lb injectors ?? Boost??

Hey guys, I was wondering what my max boost setting should be with my new 60lb injectors that ill be installing once im ready for my SD tune? I guess i should have thought of this before i bought em LOL but you know how it is when youir plans change as your build progresses LOL Im planning on at least 13 to 15 psi and am hoping these will be enough for my goals
Thanks Barnat

It is related to your power level only.

Boost referenced with 58# base pressure, you should be able to get close to 900rwhp, but preferrably you should not push that size injector so hard.

I have 72's going in Friday. My 60's do 698 rwhp. Former owner did a 17lb pull and ran out of injector at 800ish rwtq at like 4200 rpm if I remember correctly with the 60's. Hope this helps.
