Default cheap way to increase fuel flow/pressure for my turbo

I am about to finish my turbo kit on my 97 sh and I need a cost efficient yet good way to provide enough fuel for about 7-8 psi of boost. originally thought about goin with the vortech rising rate fmu. Also I found a good deal on a v-afc. what do I have to have? injectors, hi-flow pump, etc? Would like to purchase the minimum at first so I can get it running.

You can gain like 3cc by removing the screen from your injectors. You should change your fuel filter before doing so though. Anyway, the holes in the screens are larger then those in the fuel filter, so it's very unlikely anything will get caught in it

if u want it reliable, get 440 cc injectors, walbro 255 lph fuel pump, and some kind of tuning device such as hondata and a full tune. that will run u about a 1000. maybe a little more.

u can be cheap and get a fuel pump and fmu. i wouldnt recommend it though.
