With 6psi of boost you're looking at some ~ 440hp which requires 8 injectors of around 325cc/min or 33 lb/hour. I can get you a set of Bosch 37 Lb/hour injectors and a Diablo-sport programmer that will give you +/- 20% fuel control at WOT and +/- 10 degrees of timing. However, if you don't have a wideband Air Fuel Ratio gauge, and a reliable (and responsive) EGT gauge already installed on your truck then you're going to have to take it to a tuner to get it tuned. The thing is if you're already damaged the internals of your car and blown a head gasket, shattered a piston, popped a ring land or done any of that other not so fun stuff, then upgrading injectors now isn't really going to fix it... You need to run a compression / leak down test and make sure it's still healthy internally. Pull and inspect your plugs for signs of detonation ... and maybe even tear it down, inspect the internals, and replace what's broken. After that is fixed, we can work on getting it tuned.

I improve a supercharger NOVI 1200 with 6 PSI and aftercooler of GS motorsport manufacture. I never install the programmer for time retarding either 8 large injector for tune the engine, and I think may broke the engine. I need this upgrade to contain (programmer “prefer Diablo” but may be another for supercharger and kit for use 8 large injector) Thanks a lot and sorry for my idiom. I need this kit in Miami Florida.
