then your car probably wont run on 440's. your going to need something to control those injectors.

so you are turbocharging with nothing at all to regulate your air fuel ratio?

If so I would suggest parking it while you do some research. An FMU is much better than nothing, and that is still a huge cause for concern. Look into getting something that can actually tune the car for boost

you have 3 options listed from worst to best

-fmu with sock injectors
-apex'i v/safc controller and 440cc (at least) injectors
-stand alone fuel mangement/ chipped ecu and bigger injectors

you cant mix any of these together
and if you run a fmu for now make sure you run check valves or a missing link

for the sake of your car buy an fmu if you HAVE to drive it. if you need it tuned call 714 590 9289. they are located in garden grove. tell them brian from h-t sent you.

get crome, or uberdata at least, u cant run a boosted car on stock ecu with just bigger injectors. cheapest way to do it right, is to chip the ecu for uberdata or crome
