What injectors and where to buy

Guys im wondering what injectors i should get? i want more power obviously and i want them to be clean not like pods from what i hear. just some improvement over stock. Or should i just keep the non ic injectors? Also i was wondering where to get a cheap boost gauge from that will go up to 60 lbs? thanks guys

What are your EGT's like? Stock non-IC injectors can put out more fuel than a hybrid turbo can keep cool.

Glowshift has some cheap gauges if it has to say "Boost". If all you need is a 60 PSI gauge, try Surplus Center.

Egts are at 1100 wot with full power screw turned up. Are you suggesting that i may not need injectors and the stock ones are ok? i will be getting an intercooler soon so egts wont really matter too much but if the power gains are going to be minimal i wont do it. thanks

i think what dave was saying is that unless you plan on getting a bigger turbo stick with your non intercooled sticks. because they will give more fuel than you can burn with your hybrid turbo

If 1100* is all you see then I doubt you have turned the fuel screw in far enough. Take it till it wants to hang out there and then back it off a bit to where it doesn't hang. Then see what your egt's are then. Also get into the fuel pin if you haven't yet. You can make 300HP on those injectors.

Edit: Didn't see the Denny T stage II (underlined corrected)

Nice thought, but Don's not interested in building injectors for antiques.
