When should you think about bigger injectors and Focus fuel pumps?

As soon as I get a new DD that doesnt spontaniously overheat the 2.76 and IRS brace are going on. It has also been suggested that I get a MAF as well but what about running out of fuel? I know some people have been fine with just the pulley but others havent. I'm sure it wouldnt hurt but how necessary are they?

If I'm going to do it I might as well do it the right way.

With a stock eaton and a 2.76, you should be ok on fuel... but you may be close to pegging your MAF.

You really won't need injectors till you get closer to the 550 range....

The stock fuel pumps are are usually good to about 480-500 hp, so you will be pretty close, but not dangerously close.

I would not do the focus pumps (even though I did do focus pumps, lol).... I would do the BAP or the Ford GT pumps.

All of this info varies from car to car... the only way to be sure you are within acceptable limits is to datalog. Whoever tunes your car should be able to take care of that.... if not, I can help ya out.

SCT 2400 is enough for most cars. 2800 is useful for the big power guys.

I put the 60lb. injectors on when I swapped blowers [2.76 and ported Eaton] just because it was easier to do it then and I figure I'll need them sooner or later. I'd rather be safe than sorry. Running out of fuel at the wrong time is a bummer. I also added the 2400 MAF and KB Boost a Pump and got the car tuned for everything at once.
