Fuel problem
Ok first off it's a 04 studded sct innovatice tunes updated oil cooler egr delete 4" exhaust s&b intake horn afe air intake boost builder updated stand pipes banjo bolts 190/100 warren injectors
Was leaving work let truck warm up for 5 min after it starte to high idle got about 1/4 mile and truck died tried to start it back up sounded like it was only hitting on 2 cylinders or so pretty much just cranked sounded like it wasn't getting fuel towed back to work it'll start n run for 10 sec then runs rough n dies I changed fuel filters still nothing
My buddy hooked up his scanner ( 5k snap on one WILL TELL YOU ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING) and everything checked out so I'm at a loss gonna check fuel psi tomorrow
Injectors have less then 1500 miles on em up until Sunday when all this happened the truck ran like new no problems at all
Could it be my fuel pressure regulator?? Do I need the blue spring upgrade??

I would be surprised if stock fuel system is satisfying 190/100 injectors. AfFTER you find problem I would get a better pump and regulated return system. Regulating return insures injectors are getting adequate pressure. Many debates on here in previous forums, I just gave you short version.

So stock fuel system prob cnt keep up?? I assumed it would only because my buddy has same set up as me 190/100 injectors stock pump stock tubo but he's running the edge n I have a sct
I plan on doing a turbo down the road but prob no bigger the 190/100 injectors way size lift/fuel pump would be good for my setup??

I'm seeing companies who will not honor warranty on oversized injectors without a regulated return system. . There are many discussions in previous posts about fuel systems, injectors and better set ups. I would recommend a little research and see what you like. I do understand how a regulated return keeps pressure to all the injectors where regulating before the injectors can allow end of line to starve for fuel. Bigger injectors usually need more fuel under higher throttle conditions.
