    Maximum fuel pressure on CTS-V 2s?

    I have a customer a little short of fuel and I see I can raise fuel pressure, but at what point will it stop flowing more and at what point is it more dangerous to the fuel pump? I'm recommending new injectors, but a big bill to spend since he doesn't intend to modify any more. I see some posts say more pressure on a V won't help, so I'm trying to get correct information before I go and play with it.

    All CTS-Vs with added boost I.e smaller pulley or larger crank need injectors. The stock fuel pumps can support 700 rwhp with a boost a pump. You don't need more pressure you need larger injectors.

    Gotta pay to play...period.

    I doubt you'll get much more pressure out of those things. The more you raise pressure, the less the pump can physically flow. Injectors are a given to upgrade in most cases on the V.

    Pretty much what I was gathering from my research and also my opinion. Just wanted to check.
