Default Better fuel pump/bigger injectors if i boost?

Is it really necessary to upgrade the fuel pump/rail/injectors on an H22A4 if i'm gonna boost about 8 pounds on an f-max kit? I guess i'm going to upgrade the injectors to 440cc anyway, but is there anything else i need?

Are you using the ERL MF2 that comes with the kit? If you are, then you don't need bigger injectors or a new fuel pump for 8psi.

i got the f-max w/o the erl2 or the lucas injectors cuz i'm going Hondata 2b prolly w/ RC 550cc injectors....but i'm wondering since i'm only gonna boost about 8 pounds max on a completely stock motor...do i really need a better fuel pump?

As far as the 2b you would just need the 440cc not 550, unless your goal will be higher than 8 psi..?

it's all about spending lots of money on a nice setup and Hondata and not buying an intank fuel pump that takes 15 minutes to install. What if youre boost creeps past 8? better to spend the extra $100 or whatever for a fuel pump.

i'm prolly going to get the 550cc for future upgrades....but will that make any difference if i go 440 or 550 if i'm only boosting 8 pounds for now?
