-(1)In-tank Walbro 255 pump
-Fragola Lines and fittings
-OEM Fuel Rails with welded fittings
All of these parts are relatively cheap except for the Fragola Lines and Fittings, top quality stuff. The sound level isn't to bad, especially since you're going to be shooting for 700hp which means you will have a reasonably loud exhaust setup.

Do you have a surge can overflow feeding a return correction kit to keep your siphon in the tank working? that is a must if you want to run the full tank with this type of setup. last question, i gave you a set of fuel rails like 2 years ago, why didnt you just use those?!? haha.

JET
This one is good for 2400 HP and up to 80 psi. They have pumps for up to 4000HP!!!

projected dates have came and gone more times then i would like to admit, so id rather not try to give another.
there has been a lack of priority on it, but i need not explain why since it doesnt really matter. current reports are positive, and if nothing comes up that is more than a minor adjustment away, then its done already. its running, in a car, with no current issues.

For 700whp, both kits "could" get you there, but at their limits. Nitrouz made 700+ at GTM on the APS extreme fuel system. And BamBam made good power on the AAM Stage II (don't recall how much, but it was a lot
), but I believe he's pulling the Stage II and working a custom setup now...

These big pumps just sound mean and when you hear one of these on a car, you know they are not fu*king around. I actually like the
Weldon pumps over the Aermotive but they are much more expensive.
