Default Do i have to buy larger fuel injectors with a turbo kit?

Most turbo kits that I see online dont include larger fuel injectors. So does that mean you dont really need them unless if your running like over 10psi of boost? I was planning to run 7-8psi for daily driving and trying to keep on a low budget to get me started and piece together other stuff that I'll probably need later down the line. What do you guys think?

depends on how much horsepower you want to obtain, I'd say spend the extra $, buy a walbro 255lph intank fuel pump and bigger injectors, this will lead you to further options incase you want to increase your hp levels. You wouldn't want to max out your stock 240cc injectors at 100% duty cycle right? for something pretty cheap I'd go for some 450cc dsm's and an obd0 honda resistor box, that'll yield you to 260hp at 80% duty cycle I believe.

btw..

resistor box, dirt cheap from the local junk yard
dsm 450's? varies, under $100

I was looking to start off around roughly 250hp. Im started to piece together a kit that will give me something to work with. I was just wondering if larger fuel injectors should be one of the things that I should take a look at first rather than waiting till later?

yes, most definately.. your stock injectors won't yield you 250whp, I'm still currently building my turbo kit and injectors are one of the most important factors when you have a steady hp goal.

Ebay the dsm 450cc's
they're peak and hold therefore you need a obd0 honda resistor box, search resister box install and you'll find wiring instructions
