Question Do I need bigger injectors for 12psi on the stock turbo?

just like the topic says, 12 is the highest i wanna run, it should be okay for the stock turbo right? Would I be pushing the limits of the stock injectors?

Yes you will be pushing the stock limits of the injectors. I wouldn't do it, but its been done. If your injectors/pump aren't up to par you could have problems. Also, if you creep past on a cold night you could detonate.

Depends really. How many miles are on the turbo? My stock one took a **** right after I turned the boost up. BUT I think mine was going anyways.

Hey guys just found this forum hahaha
I am in the u.k. and our beloved rxsevens are rare, as for the junk yards - ha ha ha
If you know of anywhere that would be able to supply me with 680cc injectors (and ship to u.k.) I would be exstatic.
My rx kinda dont like it over 12psi with stock ones.

does this also mean I need an FD fuel pump and if so is it a straight swop.
cheers

Make a post in the for sale/wanted section in here, check www.thepartstrader.com, check www.teamfc3s.org/forum, and make a post in the 1st gen section because thats where the injectors come from.

As for the pump, I'd go with a walbro one. They are a direct replacement and flow well.

Before I ported my wastegate with just the dp/mp and cone filter I would creep to .9bar in fourth...and stayed on it a couple of times. In hindsight that was very dumb, but EGT got to just over 800 degrees. That's cutting it very, very close. Then again .9 bar is about...13 pounds. I think anything UP to 12 is ok...but after that boost at your own risk with just the walbro.
