Default Newbie boost question

I know nothing about a turbo nor never really cared much about them but I just got an offer I can't turn down, I don't think. he is going to donate most everything and all the work to build the kit and install it for basically free. I just have to do a show and tell for him.

now my question is on my 6.0 at a 10.8.1 CR ( specs below) would 8 to 10 pounds of boost make me run out of injectors (flex fuel) and the stock fuel pump? also I'm guessing my set up wouldn't be bad but not the best for boost? or do you think it would be. I don't want nothing in the high boost range just something lowish.

any thoughts will help.

Youre gonna need a fuel pump regardless and its honestly not bad putting one in. A walbro 400 is around $100 and will get you where you need to go. Im no expert but I dont think your flex fuel injectors will be big enough for 8-10 lbs. 60s will do that just fine

The injectors im running I bought after i found out about the bad reviews but its too late for me so I hope theyll work.

This is the same for the 400
