im confused, on your other post your talking about how to control your boost from spiking, and in this post your talking about ...
thinkin of running 7psi max boost
Im guessing either your NOT boosted at all yet? Or your boosted with fo fuel management??? Either way you havent given enough details.

if you are running stock injectors + a piggyback or standalone..... yes, you need bigger injectors to run ANY amount of boost.

If you are running an FMU style one, then no you dont. But i would recommend pitching that and getting injectors and an emanage.

That boost spike question is a concern... n i m juz runnin 4-5psi nw with the new setup (still runnin it in though), with it spikin up to abt 7psi max during shifts. What I m thinkin of, is to run at 7psi all the time instead, cos at 7psi, the spike will hit 9psi??

Tried tuning with emanage, but doesnt really solve the challenge. Will there b idling issues with RSX injectors?

Sorrie for the confusion...
