Seems odd to my way of thinking that a supercharger vendor would furnish injectors supplying less fuel than the OE hardware.

me too. and the tune they send with it is absolute garbage. they expect you to run around with it to keep the warranty. its way to rich and the timing is all messed up in it.

Exactly, maybe at 2-3 psi in throttle transitions but anymore and it needs to be in high 11's. once you start getting around 10psi I would shoot for 11.5 or so especially considering the ethanol content in fuel having a stoich even richer. I have found next to no power differance between 11.4-11.8 so IMO its not worth pushing it but rather leave yourself a little safety margin.

i should have added something to that in the lines of "pump gas" on 110, or c16 i would run it that lean for power.

I'm not sure what the 5.3 flex fuel injectors are but I've heard they are lower. 58psi=4 bar, 43.5psi= 3 bar

Btw....your stock (50#) injectors are also too small for 8psi. When I just had my Whipple with 8psi on stock injectors, I was we'll over 90% (80% is generally considered safe) injector duty cycle at WOT. At 8psi, your actual rail pressure will be closer to 50psi. I have 60# injectors now and I'm still over 90% at WOT. The problem is with the returnless fuel system and the fuel pump control module and you don't even want to start looking in THAT mess, trust me. I gave up and am currently installing a meth injection system to make up for the high duty cycles at full throttle. Do yourself a favor and get some big (80#+) injectors, get your tune corrected for them and be done with it.
yes yes yes and HELL YES!!!!!

Did you ever change injectors and retune?
