Exhaust and fuel questions for a procharger setup


So I just bought a slightly used 3.8", 7psi procharger kit for my 2000 v6 because the price was right. I'm not looking to make a drag car or anything of the likes but would very much enjoy having something reliable around 275-300hp. I may end up running higher boost later on but for now I'll just leave it around 7psi.

As for fuel questions:

The seller told me it's coming with the 30lb originally included with the kit, is it normal for procharger kits to only come with 30lb injectors and will they be enough?

I have a 03/04 focus SVT pump on it's way as well and from what I've read that should provide sufficient fuel for a v6 procharger application. Does anyone have experience with maxing out a 03/04 SVT pump and if so about what HP was that at?


As for exhaust:

Right now I have completely stock exhaust. How severely is that going to limit the power made from this kit? -I'm wondering if I should try to upgrade that first even though I'm a bit low on cash at the moment.

The exhaust shouldn't be that much of a problem, but I would go duals somehow, cheapest way is with an h pipe adapter and GT takeoffs. And i'd think the focus pump would go to 400hp.

How exactly does that work with the V6 bumper? Wouldn't it place the tips in the same spot as on a GT?, IE inside of my bumper since I have no cutouts.
