right now i am running about 5-6 psi with no fuel system b/c my inline fuel pump broke. You can run OBD II cars with no fuel at low boost, but i highly advise against it. The easiest fuel system to do is a fmu......but u can get a more efficent fuel system by converting to a return fuel set-up.

Rep Power: 0 Running 5-6psi is like running a 50 shot of nitrous (with the exception of the lag and torque factor). A VAFC might help in that case, for a temporary solution until you get a decent fuel management system when you bump the boost.

Do not run 5-6psi without a fuel system. When my pump was bad (still working but not adding enough) I ran lean at only 3psi. Just get a VAFC2, emanage, or fmu and pump.

Anyway, fuel management would be helpful. You can prolly get away with an AFC to start with.

yeah obd II cars are able to supply a efficent amount of fuel for a dry shot.......i wouldn't try it on a 50 shot, but definitely on a 35.
