Upgrade your injectors and fuel pump!!! Although my car is running strong still, I know something is wrong inside the motor. I think it was caused by running 4lbs of boost with the stock injectors. Don't make the same mistake!
That is all.
Im running a turbo charger aswell... and im runnin 7psi and its no problem at all... I have a FMU system tho but didn't change my injectors... aftermarket Fuel Pump.. thats it for fuel and its fine mechanic pulled it all apart to see if it was ok and everything still looked great,,,

Thats weird. I had a Vortech FMU and Walbro fuel pump with stock injectors and my car kept losing power if I had the throttle all the way down. I drove all the way to Florida like that and noticed that my car was starting to get oil in the tailpipe. So, after I came back home, I upgraded my injectors and it was like Whoa when I floored it.
I've not even got all the bugs out of my turbo setup, but what i like about having the FMU and the inline fuel pump is that I have the pump come on only when boosting by hooking up a switch to the FMU. If i went with 36lb injectors or bigger... and ditched the FMU how difficult would it be to keep my setup with the fuel pump? Could I just leave the vacuum switch in place? It t's off the FMU but I guess it could just be at the end of a vacuum line???

Your setup is not depended on FMU at all, it just takes the signal from same source as wastegate, bost gauge, etc.
I agree with viper, the life of fuel pump is the same as life of the bulb, if you go and do on/off/on/off on the switch regular bulb will burn in 24h , but if you just leave it on , it will last for a year. The fuel system is not something that I would around , I did intank Walbro and will do 36# for the begining(right after my HPT arrived)
