the stock injectors wont be able to help any forced induction too much..you will ATLEAST need an FMU..and even then..it will put a strain on your fuel pressure regulator..and injectors..i reccommend getting some 450cc injectors to start with..and get them tuned to the boost level you are running...dont skimp on fuel..because thats how you lean out,and detonate.

1). an FMU will not "strain" the fuel pressure regulator. You can't "strain" it. You can send it too much fuel which will simply cause it to not be able to bleed off as fast, but its not going to "strain" it or cause it any harm.
2). Additional fuel pressure will not strain injectors either. In order to 'strain' injectors you would need to exceed 80% duty cycle. Simply cramming more fuel through them using the same pulse width will not cause any harm. Once you exceed 80% duty cycle however, you are not allowing enough time for the injectors to close and cool. Since they are only solenoids, they can, and will eventually overheat.
For the reasons listed above, this is why most people use FMU's. You can keep the stock injectors and not drive them too hard and get away with most basic crap. Its not the right way to do things however. You should be getting larger injectors and going from there. Thing is, with larger injectors comes the need to tune them CORRECTLY. This means no stupid VAFC's. If your ECU isn't chipped already, do so. This will allow you to correctly increase/decrease fuel volume.

.by the way is chrome a good program?and my qustion was how much boost can i run befor boom?

Crome is an awesome software IMO.. I have the pro version and its what I use to tune with. Had very good resutls from it.
