Default Upgrading Injectors

Would it be possible to upgrade from beige injectors to yellow and just turn the boost up without doing anything to my FRST??

It's possible.

The result would be complete fail.

As said not good.
It does not alter the IGNITION curve, MORE boost = LESS ignition, result possibly a holed piston.

That wasn't really where I was coming from. A couple of points:

1) By 'yellow injectors' I assume you mean std cossie? Well they're low-impedence and will eat your ECU alive.
2) The fuelling would be completely wrong, and the chip may not be calibrated at the higher boost levels you want to run, so who knows what'd happen.
3) Chip may have a boost cut in it anyway to stop you going any higher.
