upgrades for a turbo 2.2l
alright i recently bought a stage 3 kit from www.forcedairtech.com
now i want to run more than 5 boost i have a upgrade fuel pump. i have all the exaust and intake done i have been shopping around i want to do soemthing that doesn't require new pistons or heads. i know that the next step is fuel and i know that i can run 14 boost with just fuel upgrade. but that requires a secondary injector set that i can't get any more (place is closed for remodeling) my plan is to get new injectors and find out if my pump is 255 or 315lpf (i don't think that is correct) but i want to run about as much boost SAFELY as i can with out 3 grand worth of internal engine work! now now i have a better ecu nd all that jive what do i need to do this is a legacy 2.2l.

sounds like you need bigger injectors and a 255Lph fuel pump. Also going to need some sort of controller for those injectors and the ability to retard your timing up top.
For your setup, I would say either 440cc or 550cc injectors. You didn't state what year you have, but you may be able to run WRX injectors as a start. Or just go straight to RC Engineering injectors from www.musclemotors.com <--- lowest prices on RC eng injectors around.
Then for controll, you need something like a E- manage or FTC1 or LInk. FTC1 is the least expensive (529-579 bucks) and will do all you need. E-manage is next in line (650-750 bucks) with a few more options. Link is the most expensive (around 1300 now) with TOTAL control of everything... and it's a Major PITA.
That's my input. Take it for what it's worth. Whatever you choose to do you'll have lots of help here or at that "other forum"
