injectors and fuel pump, decisions decisions

Hey guys so i saved up enough money to buy some injectors and a fuel pump and get a tune So know i need some help choosing which ones are best for my set up, are 1000cc or 1100 cc best for my setup, my mods are in my sig, keep in my mind i dont plan on going bigger turbo anytime soon. Also this is the fuel pump that i have in mind,

I found these injectors made by map that are great for the price

Stock turbo on pump gas does not need an upgrade from the stock fuel injectors. I have the fuel pump kit you linked and it worked well on my stock turbo setup and my EF2 turbo setup. I went with ID1000 injectors once I upgraded to the EF2 turbo and couldn't be happier with them, easily the best aftermarket fuel injectors I've ever run; MAP's seem similar and should also be a nice option for people who need them.

You should get a 3-port BCS if you don't already have one.

Well I plan going e85 down the road so I wanna have the injectors ready, so 1000cc and the waldro fuel pump should be a good mix then? And yeah one of my friends told be about the 3 port bcs, I'll look into that as well, map makes quality products so their injectors should performance as well as other products also would I need a fuel since the one in the stock fuel pump will be removed?

That Walbro w/install kit and the 1000cc injectors will be a nice combo for stock turbo E85.

I have the DW65 fuel pump and FIC 1100cc injectors and works real nice with the upgraded turbo but will also be ok to run before your upgrade. I also upgraded to a Boomba Fuel rail and I love it, and the price for what I have is reasonable.

Walbro. You can, but you don't have to. Most people who upgrade to the Walbro do not. Good quality fuel + the pre-pump sock filter has proven to work well; some cars no longer even include post-pump filters.

So the walbro/Cobb fuel pump kit doesn't require a FPR?

Nope. My only fuel-related mods are Walbro 255HP w/Cobb install kit and ID1000cc injectors w/PnP harnesses.

It's not related to the fuel system, but when getting tuned it makes boost control much steadier and easier for the tuner to get dialed in, especially when raising boost pressure from stock levels.
