Default SC 5.9 QC

I just bought a supercharger for my QC 5.9 2WD. i have the supercharger, air bonnet, GSM pipes but i do not have anything for computer and fuel. I am going to use a Vortech FMU and some injectors with a reflashed computer. but i do not know which rate for the FMU. I dont know what size injectors and i dont know who could flash my computer. What should i use? what do you think i will do performance wise? like quarter and HP numbers?

Who made the blower? I'd contact them for their advice.

Stock injectors are 16 lb/hr iirc, which is just silly. You'll probably want 30 lb/hr injectors, that would be my guess. That's what I've got in my 5.0 (but I should have 24's right now, since it's without blower pending massive cashflow improvements). 19 lb/hr are supposed to max out at around 300hp in 5.0 land. Depends on how much boost you're running I guess. Without a/f management I wouldn't run much at all, especially with the stock injectors and fuel pump.

not to say that you are wrong but i think that my stock injectors are 24# injectors. also should i get a flash or should i get a MSD with a BTM? what is a BTM? and is a 6a what i need? SC comes here next week!!!! how do i insert pics? i can post pics of the stuff that i am receiving and then all can decide on what else i shoud get

You could be right on the injectors, I had heard that they were 16 lb injectors and taken it at face value since I am about 48k before my warranty is out so I'm not even looking at modifying it yet.

Either way, you need bigger injectors.
