something's wrong with my 460cc injectors...right now i have stock injectorsmy z31 t3 turbo go up to 12 psi. i couldn't find any way to lower my boost. do you guys think stock injectors and maf will hold 12 psi? (how about runnig with stock inj, maf, no i/c)

i have to run like this just for temporary. like 2 hours of driving?

it cant get up to 12 psi if you stay out of boost just keep your foot out of the throttle. the car will still make enough power to drive out of boost.

you dont have to floor the throttle. just drive w/ partial throttle.

Stock injectors don't hold boost for CRAP. I don't think it'd be a good idea to drive it, but if you do - stay out of boost as much as you can.

yeah seriously. drive slow or you're gonna be driving REALLY slow.

The stock injectors couldnt keep up with 12psi to save their lives without some crazy fuel pressure.

doesnt removing the wastegate or something like that make the trubo not spool up. Probably not the best idea, but no boost will keep your motor from blowing up if its only for a temporary fix

just a thought
