new here just turbo'd my 535is, going to run 7lbs to start I know I will want more. Is air/water the only way to go on a e28 or is air/air possible Looking for suggestions. At what pound of boost will I need to change injectors?
Thanks Chuck

What injectors do you have now? Stock?

As for the intercooler, air/water is very popular with the m30 due to space and pipe routing considerations. Air/air IS possible, but it's a heck of a lot more work to get in there in a spot with adequate airflow.

What turbo setup did you use? 745i setup or something else?

I say 7psi is too much for the stock injectors, you need to beef them up or find another way to get more fuel in the engine.
