MHI stage 2 turbo upgrade without upgraded HPFP or injectors

[FL5ghost]

Hello, I’ve been stuck in a thought recently about purchasing the MHI stage 2 turbo. Unfortunately, during the downpipe install 1 of the turbo studs snapped and the other came out but the thread got messed up during the process. I've yet to get the turbo taken out and the bolt machined out and rethreaded. I would like to upgrade the turbo without having to get the xdi HPFP/Injectors. I've heard from others you can run the turbo without those 2 modifications but others have stated I do… what are your guy’s thoughts?

Buy the new turbo and I can get you setup with it tuning wise if you are interested I am also based in FL. This Setup I have personally tested and currently running in my car. Or the Tuner of your choice of course.

you can upgrade the pump at a later time.

Get the turbo, let Jester tune it and if at a later date you want more then add the fuel upgrades and retune. That's my plan at least. Baby steps!

Thank you for responding also to add I’ve got a Catless downpipe paired with the OEM frontpipe. Is the frontpipe a vital piece or can I keep the OEM for now?
