42lb or 60lb injectors will be good. If you get 60lb your tuner will tune them for whatever fuel psi is needed. There are a couple of guys on here selling new 42lb injectors.

Yep. I have a regular ZX3 with a procharger on 10psi and I'm using the 60lb injectors but they are tuned for 42lb.

i thought that you can have the stock injectors with a boost a pump

The injectors won't be able to flow the amount of fuel needed and they will max out easily. Look up some of Toms post about injector sizing.

Yeah the boost a pump is exactly what it says....boost A PUMP. Your fuel pump. All that will do is increase the voltage on your fuel pump to pump more fuel but if you don't have big enough injectors for the amount of fuel the boost a pump and fuel pump are pushing, then there's no point. Gotta get bigger injectors.

No you can use your stock fuel pump alone. Stock fuel pump will hold 300whp or more. Ask 03OrangeSVT. He's using the whole stock fuel system (minus injectors) and he's making well over 300 hp.

I would imagine so....I know the 03-04 fuel pump flows alot better than the earlier years so yeah I would think so.

But your not wrong about the stock fuel system making 300whp.

With the right injectors, and right tuner. The tune can increase fuel PSI that is able to safely make 300whp with, I'd say #60 injectors
