Overboost Regulator, HPOP question.

I am getting ready to install my overboost regulator and SS high pressure oilrail crossover line from ITP. And I got to thinking about my HPOP and the overboost regulator, If I am creating more boost which equates to more fuel and that means that the HPOP needs to keep up with fuel requierments. Am I putting myself in a position to do harm to my turbo, injectors, or something else i can't think of? Is there something that I should be watching out for or should I be testing my HPOP for minimum pressure before installing these mods or should I just relax .

Thanks,
Jeff

You could get in a situation where the HPOP cant keep up in the higher tunes but you will just get a defueling feeling. With a stock turbo you will need to keep an ear out for surge since you will be able to build over 24psi of boost and not defuel.

Other than the surge that Alan mentioned, you shouldn't have any issues. You may get an SES light from the HPOP not being able to keep up, but it won't damage anything, just not make the power it's trying to make.

Install your parts and relax. You may not have any issues with the HPOP at all.
