SF fuel system with bigger injectors?

If you use the SF fuel system with bigger injectors will you be able to run higher boost without using alcohol injection?

alcohol inj. has nothing to do with the amount of fuel coming in ... its purpose is to raise the octane level

i know about alcohol injection, im just saying i dont want to use it for 9-10 psi, im doing my internals i was just wondering if with bigger injectors, and the SF fuel system if it would be enough to handle 9-12 psi without alchohol injection

The SF fuel system is designed to run up to 12psi on stock injectors, so it should be fine with bigger injectors.

The injectors have nothing to do with it. If you run that much boost without alcohol injection you'll run into detonation. The only other way to prevent this is to retard the timing. The only way to retard the timing is the E-manage......

So unless you want to shell out another $300+ stick with the setup you've got.....

We can calibrate the fuel system to do whatever you want. You just have to let us know ahead of time. If you take the normal system and put 550 cc injectors on it, you will run WAY rich. we have to calibrate it to run correctly.

Is it possible to later send the system back to you and have recalibrated?
