Default 6.5 psi and stock injectors?

I would think the stock injectors could handle such low boost. Or would they just be working too hard? I was thinking of running 310's.

You're probably running the fmu, inline pump, and stock injector setup. The 12:1 ratio should keep you in the safe, rich zone, but you never know until you dyno and tune the fuel one way or another. Definitely, don't boost any higher than 6.5 psi. The 12:1 setup will give you crazy high fuel pressures at those boost levels. Upgrade the injectors as soon as you can. I'm in the process of converting from your setup to 310cc's and s-afc; only the fact that I'm broke has kept me from doing it sooner.

It depends on how you plan to provide the extra fuel for the boost. Using a fmu i wouldn't run more then 5psi or so.
310's would be better

How's the 3" Thermal in terms of sound? I've heard that they are LOUD, but how bad is it. I was considering that upgrade, but I like the mellow, throaty sound I have now. My brother's got a Thermal but 2.5" (I think) and it's pretty loud. Also, is there any way you can provide a sound clip or something. I've been searching for one for the longest and can't seem to find one.
