At 850 it's will be maxed out, and IMO unsafe. I'm right under that on an A-1000 right now. And the pump has nothing left. 1 more event and it's coming out for an upgrade

That would be plenty for 850 on gas. With two pumps, you also need two inlet filters which takes away from some of the cost effectiveness of this route. So for about the same amount of $, you could do a single Weldon 2015.

A1000:
0 psi - 795 lb/hr
20 psi - 714 lb/hr
50 psi - 557 lb/hr
70 psi - 426 lb/hr

044:
0 psi - 490 lb/hr
20 psi - 445 lb/hr
50 psi - 420 lb/hr
70 psi - 390 lb/hr
100 psi - 350 lb/hr
120 psi - 315 lb/hr

2015:
0 psi - 685 lb/hr
20 psi - 660 lb/hr
50 psi - 615 lb/hr
70 psi - 585 lb/hr
100 psi - 540 lb/hr
120 psi - 500 lb/hr
140 psi - 475 lb/hr
160 psi - 450 lb/hr

On an A1000? What base pressure? What was boost pressure?

on c16 1600cc injectors s372 turbo. im guessing car will be around runnning around 35-40 psi on boost so the a1000 should be ok at that boost level.
