ATI procharger questions and concerns
hey,
did a search and read some sticky's but i cant find a lot of the answers im wondering about on this kit. i can get it for wholesale price which is why im deciding to go the procharger route, but prochargers website has little info and pretty much just talks about how great the technology is haha.. ok so here goes....
psi- how many psi does the non tuner intercooled kit initially produce with the pulley they send?
tuning- ok it comes with something to increase fuel pressure to your stock injectors and utilizes a new fuel pump. are the stock injectors good enough to do this? and also it doesnt adjust timing so do i need to get a utech and a tune or am i fine with what they send me if im only wanting to run 7 or 8 psi?
power- my overall goal is to run between 380-400whp.... can the stock bottom end support this or what is the power limit to run safely on the stock vq35de bottom end and fuel system (injectors).
im not expecting to make 400whp on only 7 or 8 psi but i just wanna get an idea of what i need (if anything) aside from what procharger sends me at first....then what will be required later to get it to around 400whp.
oh and in addition to the procharger i already have (powerwise atleast, lots of other mods but they wont help me with power)
test pipes
y pipe
3" ti catback
plenum spacer
grounding kit
pop charer (obviously wont be used with the procharger)
aluminum flywheel
currently the car is sprayed making 366whp and i'd be fine with the charger making the same power because it's less of a pain in the *** than having to open the bottle, refill the bottle, worry about it every time i use it, ect.
thanks in advance for all your help

The kit comes with a 7psi pulley. To make your goal, you will need. Atleast 440cc injectors, Walbro Fuel pump, turbo XS Utec and the 9psi pulley set. The bottom end will handle the 400whp, but how long will it last is just a guess.
You will also need a set of gauges. A Wideband Air/fuel gauge is a must and I suggest a boost gauge and fuel pressure also. DONT use the inline fuel pump and the EFMU that comes with kit. I'm pretty sure they sell a cheaper package that does not come with these items. Thats the one you need and buy your own fuel pump and Utec.

alright that works. ya they sell the "tuner" kit that doesnt come with the efmu or the fuel pump. its usually like 800 or so less so i guess i'll just get that one then and buy a utech and fuel pump. the stock injectors are ok tho when running the 7psi pulley?

When I was Procharged with water/meth put down 351whp at 8psi on a mustang dyno.
Edit: You will need some 440 or larger injectors. I was running 600's at the time.
