run a -10 or even -6 AN feed to your turbo and watch it explode in a great ball of oil Run a -3 for the feed, and -10 for the return.

Im shootin at 425+, if i upgrade the turbo... 500+

I just dont wanna have to go back and upgrade later, im gonna prepare to upgrade, becuase im gonna do it eventualy.

Im pretty much just tryin to figure out wich external regulator to buy, either the -10 or -6

-6 should be good to what power you want to make..but so will the stock fuel lines...i believe the stock is already pretty close to the size of a -6 so if you just removed some of the restrictions in it like banjo fittings with an fittings you should be fine..

if you really want to upgrade ide go with -8..that will be plenty big for your setup and lines and fittings will be cheaper then -10

The only FPR's ive seen have -10 and -6 inlets, So can i get the one with -10 inlets and run -8 lines?

My friend said he's running -8 on his Hatch

just run a -8 feed and a -6 return and run the regulator off the return...but they should make the right size fitting for the FPR in a -8 though

-8 to the rail should be plenty for most street setups

-8AN feed is plenty big for 500whp. The aeromotive fpr comes in -10 and -6 inlets. Just get an adapter, -8 to -10, for the fpr.

I run a -10 to the pump, -8 to rail and -6 return. that setup seems to be what most people run i think.

stock lines are good for 550-600 to the wheels for sure. i would go to -8 for like 550-650 and -10 for 650 plus. seriously under 525, stock lines are fine.

"seriously under 525, stock lines are fine." I had no fuel pressure drop until over 580whp with stock lines and 255hp pump. If you are going to upgrade run -10 feed.
