ECU and Fuel system Upgrades?
Right now I am running a DP and CB with everything else stock. I may install a midpipe in place of the cat. I came from having a S4 TII and I had to port the hell out of the wastgate (after which I had no boost creep with a full exhaust), do the FD twins need ported running a full exhaust? Basically I am looking to keep the power at or near stock levels. And this winter I am going to port the wastegate to hopefully insure that, along with add a few more mods. The other power mods I am looking to run are the following, let me know if any of them are not necessary:
Apexi PFC
Upgraded SMIC (have yet to decide which to go with)
Intake (have yet to decide which to go with)
Efini Y-pipe/crossover
I was on RX7.com page and saw that they said the stock fuel pump is the first that would need to be placed, and I can get *with the right ECU 380fwhp*, I was going to the competition for secruity reasons. So from what I gather with the power levels I want getting a larger fuel pump or injectors is a waste?? I am also going to send out my injectors to get cleaned and balanced this winter (or would I be better putting that money towards bigger injectors and tune it with a PFC?)
I am sure I will have more questions, but I would appreciate the help. I know I am lame for wanting stock power levels.....

I would just get bigger injectors if I were you. How much bigger depends on the power you want to make. I would port them if you can to be safe even though you may not need to. Its better to just get it out of the way.

Black97VR4, but I will need a PFC for that. So I guess a PFC with close to stock power is a good idea?
How important would an upgrade fuel pump be for me? Or what about a FPR?
