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.

Hey lonnies LOL I just remembered i got these from Nasty once i saw your thread LOL I actually forgot who i bought these from LOL I bought these last year with my fuel kit from you guys and am finally getting her ready for a tune here real soon and want a safe tune without pushing the block to its limits like some do with money to burn LOL I was thinking of down tunning to 700 to 750Hp range on my forged 6.0 just because i want her to last awhile because of money issues as everyone else im sure is feeling too and was thinking of 12 to 15 psi should put me there with my APS???

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.
