CA CA18det Q?

I just had a quick question for you guys. A friend of mine called me this morning and tried to explain a problem that he has run into. I've never tried to deal with a ca18 swap so... I'll start with his mod list

91 240

CA18DET
T28
ka24e maf
walboro 255lph pump
stock CA Injectors
nismo fpr (didn't ask what the fp is set at)
stock ca18det ecu
stock side mount
stock BOV
2.5 down pipe, 3 inch exhaust
stock timing

The problem is that the car is falling on its face once it is under full throtle @ 12-13 pounds with the t28 (i told him that he most likley needed buy a boost controller and turn it down around 8-9psi, I'm not very sure how much power the stock injectors will support.) Like i said, i've never done a ca18det swap before so i'm not sure. If i could get some of you guy's insite on this it would be very appreciated.
