I recently got a bone stock 95 GSX as my daily driver. It's nice, but coming from my other 95 GSX w/50 trim, dsmlink, supporting mods, it gets boring.

I know what it takes to run a big16g safely, being that very same 50 trim gsx use to have a big16g on it.

My idea for my daily driver is to keep it very stock looking, but have some more pep to it.

So far I'm planning to keep the stock ic piping, changing the stock 2g bov to an EVO 8 bov that is good for 23+ psi, direct bolt on to the stock piping. Getting a generic open element filter on ebay. Now obviously a t28 would look more stock, but I'm biased towards getting a 16g. No FMIC, if anything upgrade to supra smic.

I have an extra set of denso 660s that I can put in. I really did not want to get any afc or anything like that. I was hoping to find a fuel combination that will work ok without any tuning for low boost, like 15 psi. I was planning to keep the stock exhaust system.

Is my goals safely doable? I can pull 350 miles per tank on this car, I'm definitely going to lose that great gas mileage right?

If I'm not planning to do fuel would a 14b be safe to run on stock fuel?
 
I'm running a EVO III on stock 450's (550's on the way) at 15psi with a walbro 190... A/F is at 11.2... I do have the S-AFC tho. It's flowing around 27 lbs/min... I get around 18-19 mpg... Not sure if this helps, I'm just giving you an example.
 
i was under the impression that the T-25 would work up to 16psi so i think a 14b would be a perfect little upgrade... the 16g might be overkill. im pretty sure you cant upgrade the injectors without tuning them somehow, either chips or dsmlink or whatever. your gonna need a boost controller as well.
 
Yea I was just doing some reading, and it seems like the 14b would be perfect for what I'm trying to do. Supposedly I can get away with running the 14b with no fuel mods running 15lbs, and supposedly the difference from the t25 to 14b is pretty drastic. I can rewire the stock fuel pump or rewire a new walboro just to be safe.

14b, evo 8 bov, and filter, should be cheap yet very fulfilling on power.
