Default fuel system upgrade

Ok guys I am currently running a single walbro returnless style setup. I am looking to upping the boost to around 14/15 psi. What do you guys recommend for fuel changes? I am looking for the most cost affective setup. Not looking to spend alot of money, just something to get the job done. thanks Nick

Kyle at KBRACING is running a 340 aeromotive and a racetronix hotwire kit and some big injectors. Seems to be working well for him at that boost level.

Wouldn't be a bad idea to convert it to return style with the regulator up front but I think the aeromotive 340 may get you by just barely.

Which hot wire kit? I ordered the racetronix kit for the trucks, and as soon as I plug mine in. It blows a fuse. If the wires are backwards,how would I fix it.
