Pretty sure I'll have to get rid of my Perrin 3" BigMAF intake, but not sure about the Perrin Oil Cooler or the Tomei UEL catless header. Rest of exhaust should stay on, I guess...a Perrin overpipe, HKS catless resonated front pipe and a Perrin resonated catback.
Any help appreciated. I've read and searched for hours but no luck yet, so sorry if this has already been discussed.
I have zero experience with FI.
Also, have most C38 owners upgraded injectors and pump? While appatently not necessary for pump gas (98 octane here), is it better?

I have a c38. stock motor. I do have supporting mods though. I have tomei UEL header, tomei over pipe, invidia n1 catback. I'd definitely recommend bigger injectors. I have the dw700cc and also a fuel pump too, I'm using a dw65c.
I'm also running flex fuel too. It's nice to run ethanol for better cooling so it's less prone to knock.
The main reason why you definitely want to get bigger injectors and a higher flowing pump is because imagine you are driving and you run into boost. and then all of a sudden, the duty cycle is so high on the fuel pump, your fuel pump immediately fails. Once that happens BOOM. engine is popped.
running with 93 on stock pump and injectors is cool, I did that for awhile, but I don't recommend it for doing it long term. I track my car and have numerous sessions under my belt and I'd say it's holding up quite well. Stock clutch is finally starting to slip but that's about the only problems.
