Can I get a Electronic Fuel Cut Defender and a Rising Rate Fuel Pressure Regulator? I'm only trying to do 5 to 7 psi. And use the stock ecu? Let me know what you think. Thanks
Brandon.

Nope, you have a lot of research to do.
You can use the stock pcm but you will need to reprogram it.
5\7psi on what turbo?

It definitely doesn't look like the right option given your premises.
