Default boost on a D16Z6

I have a 95 civic with a D16Z6 with a greddy turbo kit (TD04-15g, vortec FMU Missing link map bypass, and 18-9-3" intercooler). The kit come at 4.5psi and I wount to run 8. I have a stock fuel system and Im going lean at 6psi or so. I know I need a fuel punp and some biger injeters but is there any thing i shuld look at before i try to run the 8psi?

Edit: I all so have a V-AFC in the car

You need some bigger injectors (450cc DSM), a resistor box, and a way to control them (Uberdata)...

Oh, and some kind of boost controller to increase the boost safely...

I would do a compression test just to make sure the motor is strong before upping the boost.

you will defiantly want to upgrade the injectors but as stated go download uberdata, it free and you can tune your car yourself

I'd have to agree, this would prob be your best, cost-effective upgrade path.

If you know what you're doing... You dont want to tune your car yourself if you have no idea what the hell your doing, It'll blow up faster than if you didnt touch it.

True... plus you need to have a wideband or dyno to tune Uberdata yourself... which increases the overall cost...

lol thats true, but uberdata is very user friendly, it will automatically make a very conservative basemap for your turbo setup , and you'll need a wideband no matter what so thats a universal cost...
