SOHC Turbo Fuel Problem.
Alright well i'm just putting on all my parts to my sohc turbo on my car. But the thing is I haven't bought new injectors yet because I keep on reading different information from different people. Some people say stock injectors will hold fine while others say you'll run to lean with stock injectors. Then people say they ran fine on bigger injectors but others say that'll cause your car to bog. So far for fuel system i'm running a 255 fuel pump with a performance adjustable fuel pressure regulator. What size injector should I run. I'm running a t3 turbo at 6lbs. What size injectors will be the best. I'm thinking 370cc injectors. Please post experiences or information bout this. Thank You.

see if you can get a set of dsm 450's. also stock inectors will not hold uip very well. you will run lean under boost. Also you will need something to control the injectors. as far as anyone saying you will bog if the injectors are to big, tell them there is a magical thing called tuning.

bigger than stock injectors with a rising rate FPR/FMU would definitely cause you to bog. tuning is the key

Running only 6psi there is no need for a new fuel pump or new injectors...stockers are fine. But like others have said you will need a FMU.

I hope you dnt mean like a vortec. and how can stock inectors be fine for 6psi? when i did my turbo kit i thought stockers would be fine. i was wrong car ran like garbage. put my injectors in and a afc hack car ran 30 times better. and when i went uberdata, even better.

Re: (wushubrian)
I've been running stock injectors on my civic for 10k miles. I have a 255 walboro fuel pump and a Vortec FMU. No problems at all. I'm only running 7psi and I wouldn't take it past there. You only need injectors if your going to be running higher than 7 psi.
I'm not saying this is the best route, I would get tuned if I could afford it right now, but for a budget your car can be boosted on stock injectors.
Happy boosting
