Talking Supercharger install

I'm about to install a Vortech v-1 supercharger on my 02 mustang, but it didn't come with injectors or fuel pump. I can't find hi-flow pumps only oem replacement, so do I have to change the pump because the flow of a stock pump is 60lbs-70lbs, which is about what i need: 255lph. And are 42lbs injectors to big for set up? It ask for 38lbs injectors.

I have the Procharger P1-sc setup in my '01 and my injectors are 42lbs. and and I have the SVT Focus fuel pump and I run just fine so I'm guessing that with the same thing you will do great.

Yes you should change your fuel pump a Focus SVT fuel pump will do. If you are going to buy new injectors go with 42 lbs but on a side note I have a set of 38 lb injectors that I can sell you really cheap.

I have a novi 2000 I'm using 42lb injectors and a focus pump. I'm running 9lbs of boost. My fuel pump is at 100% duty cycle in 4th gear at 6000 rpm's.

This is worth a look at. I wish I would have known about this article before I decided on my fuel setup.

Just for common knowledge, 36lb injectors are capable of handling anything the stock 99-04 bottom end can handle comfortably.

I have a V2 with 42lb injectors and a Focus SVT. If I was going to do it again, I would put in a larger pump. My Focus pump is at 100 duty cycle around 5,600 RPM and limited my HP gains.

I see in your signature you have underdrive pullies. I do not know why, but everyone says you need to swap back to stock when you go supercharged. maybe someone else can chime in.
