A 3.6 -3.5 is the most you are going to want to run. I personally would not go more then a 3.6.

The 3.0 pulley is going to need a number engine and fuel system upgrades.

Probably a min of colder plugs, colder stat, exhaust work (probably headers), and you probably should see some high ratio rockers on there. You're gonna wanna watch the tune pretty close though you have the Gen V M90 and they have increased efficiency over the Gen 3's so it doesn't take as much pulley to make the same boost so you'll be getting into super heat soak land pretty quick like that
I suppose you could intercool and probably get away with some milder exhaust modding like PLOGs and you might be able to get away w/o higher ratio rockers or a cam but once again you'd wanna keep a very close eye on the tune

At least 42 pound injectors. I would go ahead and buy 60's and be done with it. INTENSE sells the injectors and can get you a pcm set up as well.
