Question Fuel mod question

i recently threw a new exuaust on, and its running great, but according to my air/fuel gauge, at WOT, im not running as rich as i was with my last system, probsbly indicating that im getting more flow out the back. which is fine, but heres my question...
If i get a walbro pump and a super AFC, will that be good enough? is it really really necessary to get secondary injectors right away?
how many different options do i have when attempting to get more fuel in there without selling my house. lol

thanks!

I think you should be fine. Some idots get by running up to 12 psi on a STOCK fuel system!

definatly get the walbro in there!. safc might do alittle bit...

the high flow cat "comming soon" will lower your boost again so after that it will be better.

No, the stock injectors are good for around 300hp. It's the pump that's the weak link, so you should be fine. Make sure you get that S-AFC dyno tuned.
