Don't trust that intake BBK/Walbro/Holley pump. You'll regret it.

Get a good frame mount external pump.

TRUST ME..............

inline fuel pump, Vortech FMU 12:1 ratio, and an vafc to tune it down
that set up is good to 10psi, after that, you should look into a stand alone ecu

im doing bosch inline race pump/AEM rail/RC 370 stage 1 injectors,( using stock as backup when i get staged n20 (he he ]~)) already have FPR. Also wanna get a good ignition. Im going to be using a accel igntion dist by nuespeed.

going to use vafcr and apexi's ignition timing computer to get to 15 psi. dont plan on boosting anymore but will probably run a heafty shot for serious racing .
