Default kinda new to this and have a question

So I'm starting my custome turbo kitand I was told I wouldn't need to upgrade the injectors or ecu if I'm running six pounds and under. Is this true or is smeone lying to me? If this is not true can someone point me into the rite direction to what I would need. Thanks in advance

Whoever told you that probably assumes that you dont need bigger injectors because the zpi stage 0 didnt have them. You can prob get away with it, but its not the right way to go about it If you wanna make clean, smooth power your going to need them. As well as some kind of EMS. Running a turbo, espicially on a non turbo engine without a proper tune can be real dangerous. Do it right..... get some 550cc injectors and an emange or something. Plus, you wanna make some good power right? You wont with the stock 330cc or whatever they are.

depending on your boost needs, 550cc is a great injector size since Dezod and TT use them in most of their kits.

I am also selling some brand new 550cc injectors if you need some

I am currently running a t3/t4b with no managment and stock injectors but the most iv pushed it is 4psi but mostly 2psi. I fully intend to run managment and injectors. Im just waiting on injectors right now. I noticed at 4psi my afr was at high 14 low 15 wot....kinda scary

if you want to have a reliable ride then go with injectors and managment (and tune it...lol) but it is possible and does work at 6psi. by all means just do it right and have some peace of mind.
