Sharif,, explain please why the Return System helps.. If w/o it and the injectors are at less than 80% with good fuel pressure and the A/F is in the 11/12 range accross the board what effect does it have on power?

If you are running with less than 80% duty than you are lucky, because I ran out of fuel from 5800rpm with my 440/walbro
maybe your fmu acts as the aermotove fpr would?

What pulley are you running? How much boost at redline (Sorry if I missed it somewhere else in this thread).

This car is running an AAM return fuel system, so fuel shouldnt be an issue. With a proper return fuel system, and a 1:1 riser, you establish solid and stable differential fuel pressure. This makes tuning more accurate, safer, faster, and allows you to adjust your fuel pressure to suit your needs.

Chris's 350Z is awesome!
We removed the Vortech fuel pump which overdrives the injectors. He currently has the AAM Fuel System, Walboro fuel pump, and 550cc injectors. His engine is stock (no cams yet!) with a spacer, exhaust, and radiator.
For tuning we are using a combination of the AAM ECU Flash (for timing control and raised rev-limit) and the Split-Second box (used for fuel control only).
By redline we are seeing 10.5-11psi of boost on pump gas without a problem Uncorrected, Chris's Z nearly made just under 470rwhp!!

How does the SS box control fuel if the AUX pump is gone?

Ithey tried to trim the factory fan shroud, but it didnt work. Im not sure what the size was, Noah at AAM would know they had the flexlight fan in stock, when i got the radiator installed. so i just purchaced it while i was there.

The end result is modifying the fuel very similar to how the GReddy E-Manage Blue does.
Hope this helps,
