Default When will stock injectors max out?

About when will the stock injectors max out using the stock fuel pump?
In the near future I will be running 6-7psi on a TD04-13G turbo (very small).
Do you think the stock injectors will be able to handle 6-7psi?

I will be using uberdata to tune.

the stock ones just wont be enough even on low boost settings.

dsm injectors are 450cc and are pretty cheap and works good. the stock fuel pump should work fine too.

Seriously, what is it with people lately cheaping out on their turbo set-ups? Some guy wanted to run a turbo without ANY fuel management.

If you're going to modify and engine, spend the money to make it work right. Don't bitch out on everything and then come complain to us that your shitty engine blew up cause WE told you it wouldn't work and it didn't. So in closing, STFU and open up your wallet.

Oh ****, here we go.
All I was asking is a ******* question for my own personal reasons. I may need to drive my car to a tuner and I am wondering as to what the capabilities of these injectors are.

I know on a Kia, the injectors are large enough to support 7psi on a small T3 for 6psi.

Obviously I am going to ******* upgrade my injectors.
For personal reasons, I would like to know when they would max out.

i have been told you can boost safely to 8psi with a rising rate fuel pressure regulator...i am not sure how much i would want to test that theory though...

Just run on the stock injectors. Youll be fine for one good pull. If your lucky and didnt melt your pistons by running so lean you might be able to do another pull.

Look plain and simple, honda motors were never made for boost (even the LS). Honda motors are econ motors. Stock injectors arent even meant to support .5psi (1/2 a pound of boost) But with good tuning you could probably make hp, dont expect anything good and dont expect to run very long.
