At 7 pounds of boost on a stock T25, you will NEED some sort of fuel management. You can use the stock injectors, ecu, and MAF.

The stock MAF is good to 250 whp.The stock injectors can be used up to around 200 whp.As for using the stock ecu for timing, you won't be running high boost, and timing will pretty much rely on your knock sensor, lol.... the again, a lot of T25 guys are simply running an SAFC and Wideband setup without much for timing....but anything over 8 psi or so in my opinion...is a little much for the stock ecu. You could always invest in an MSD BTM down the road as well.

A stock T25 at 7 psi is a decent setup, lol. So it all depends on what route for fuel management you would like to go. An SAFC and Wideband O2 is a proven and true setup. You could also use an FMU. 8:1 could be your best bet. You can find one for around 100~200 online.

Fuel Management Unit or Rising Rate Fuel Pressure Regulator.

An FMU works on the principal that for each pound of boost, it increases pressure in the fuel rail. An 8:1 operates such as for each Pound of boost, it will increase pressure on the fuel rail 8 pounds. Stock pressure on a KA24DE is 38 to 43 on vacuum as long as the stock fpr is in check.

Of course you will need to upgrade your stock fuel pump and such.
