D16Z6 with HF/T3 Fuel Mgmt Question

Ok, so I'm boosting my d16z6, NOW! Got fuel questions.

CURRENT SETUP:
d16z6
MSD sci
Apex VAFC-II
Greddy exh
hf mani
garett t3
fmic
greddy bov

I have built my HF adapter plate and am using a Garett T3 (internal wg). I have my charge pipe my BOV, intercooler, oil lines, reconfigd wg, hf manifold, downpipe, and all the fittings needed to throw it in. When it comes to fuel management there is so much information against FMUs that I'm really wary about them even though it seems like an easy route.. What kind of ratio would I need in this setup? I want to boost at around 7psi to get me right around 200hp.

Will the stock injectors be able to maintain at 7psi?

If I go with an FMU am I going to be able to just get this thing going with little trouble (keeping in mind that I will be upgrading to uberdata in the near future.. I know I should just start with uber but I dont have time right now.. Just want to BOOST!

)

Will I need a MAP missing link at 7psi?

Should I just use a VAFC hack instead of an FMU?

I know the info is out there and I've found much of it but there is a lot of discrepancy.. Just need some straight advice from a boost veteran.

Thanks!

They might be able to, but I wouldn't risk it. What size T3 do you have?

You will need a missing link (or aquarium check valves to save money) at any boost level with an FMU.

Both of them suck IMO. If I ever used a VAFC I would also get an MSD BTM, but for the cost of both of those you could be running a chipped ecu with Uberdata and have cash left over.
