i'm going to go ahead a build the internals while my engine is being built......what kind of boost can i run with this set-up:
STOCK star II fuel setup
JE pistons w/rings
Crower connecting rods
S-AFC
what is the max boost i can run with this set-up? what kind of fuel upgrades would be needed to raise the boost even more (injectors, etc....)?
anthony....boost withdrawls are a bitch!

You still need enough fuel with that setup to achieve a safe stioch mixutre at boost. That means bigger injectors. As much as the upgraded internals will allow your engine to "withstand more" heat and "avoid more" detonation, you'll still be taking chances if you don't have enough fuel.
IT apears the last thing you need to run boost higher than 10-12 psi or so will be some bigger injectors. The S-AFC will allow you to run the bigger injectors without freaking out the car at idle and below boost, but alone without injectors, it won't do much in the way of gaining MORE fuel that is needed to absorb the fuel demands at higher boost. Try and get some 440cc's and up to really jack the boost up in the 15-16 psi+ area...
Still, take each step cautiously and watch your EGT temps and A/F meter.
