Thumbs up SAFC boost and fuel question

I got a stock LS motor with turbo kit (62-1) SAFC and DSM 450 injectors. Im going to turn the boost up between 10-12 psi and I was wondering if some one could tell what they think I should run my fuel map at from 1000-8000 rpms. So far someone told me to just run it at -40% all the way across. Let me know what you think. Thanks

Tony

every car is different, u need to put it on a dyno w/ a wideband to have it tuned precisely

PS -40 across the board my work under partial throttle but youll need to compensate for the added boost pressure

what do you have for an ECU? If it's stock you shouldnt have bigger then 370 injectors. 450's are big for a stock LS motor. I had 310"s for a while on a built gsr on 10 lbs.

when i had th 310's i was pushing 10 lbs with chipped ecu and vafc making 280/185 with 11.8 a/f all the way across. Why would he need that big of an injector? I dont know the car and all he has. I wanted to now how do you decide what size of an injector would be best for an aplication?
