Why don't you tell us what you have in mind and we discuss why we would or would not recommend certain components in the fuel system otherwise there is a lot of variables

at the very least you should install a bigger pump like a walbro, cheap insurance for $120

If your going boost I would get a Fuel Pump and some 42 lb injectors @ least.

I have stock LS6 now with only a catback, and planning for 9psi (eventually). Two tuners both recommended at least 60lb injectors. With that, I also got a racetronix fuel pump and hotwire kit for it as well.
