na fuel pump and injectors are probably good for up to about 200 hp at the flywheel or 180hp at the wheels, after that your car will be running lean and with a turbo setup you will definitely be running more than 180whp.
unless youre running only like 4-6 psi and thats it and the engine is completely stock it will be around 180whp, even then youll still needa fuel controller so it doesnt run like crap, not to mention a turbo with only 180whp isnt very much considering my n/a should be close to that with and exhaust and fuel controller
i would say get bigger injectors, at least 550ccs all around or 550cc primary 650cc secondaries or whatever
there is alot more stuff that you need other than a fuel setup believe me i looked into it and the price for a reliable setup is very expensive

The S4 NA doesn't have the relay/resistor for the 2-speed pump system that other FC's have, so the rewire is very easy. Use 12GA wire to feed the pump directly from the battery via a fuse and relay, and switch the relay using the original fuel pump wires.
