Sorry but top right search.7 psi shouldnt even be an issue as long as you have fuel and some sort of EM.How long it will last .I am rebuilding an engine for the hell of it.1st engine 15-17 max psi with stock internals, (new)550cc 05 sti injectors, walboro fuel pump,plms daughter board with a decent tune,consult coming soon and the overboost ignition cut mod that they have in another thread with an adjustable 1-25 psi pressure switch.Get this mod it will save your engine its a DIY project and my sensor cost me 14 bucks.I am thinking about getting an FPR but not sure if i need it yet because the stock is the same as the sr20det.If you have the money get an lm-1 or LC-1.i can pretty much tune and data log all from my laptop now.I didnt blow my engine but the one i'm swapping for has a spun bearing.Full rebuild time.

good luck

I would suggest larger injectors, in case you get hungry. Besides, from everywhere I have seen a set of used 480s is only about 40-60 bux cheaper than new Deatschwerks 555s.

EDIT: And you shouldn't need a restrictor on a 3 an line

Oh yeah, and I bought the TiAL but I really like the Evolution for one reason: It uses shims, which seem to be cheaper, it also comes with 3 which gives you 5 different boost settings without having to buy new parts.
