Twin Turbo Fuel System ideas?

if youre on a budget, let me break it down. ive had sp triple pump, pain in the ***, lots of lines, and expensive. i hear great things about cjm twins, plus charles just kicks *** from past trades, etc. im running a fuel cell now, and my setup cost about 800 total, with new parts. of course you can always stick a 340lph pump in your oem bucket, and still hit your hp goal.
my set is as follows-mind its on the ls1 in my z, but same setup basically:
15 gal cell and sending unit-180
2 walbro 255 inlines-180
rails-200 (+/-)
regulator (which you have)
fittings-$150
hose (pushlock)-30
$720-obviously getting used stuff is cheaper. check out siliconeintakes.com for fittings, they are cheap.

Stage 0 dies at 500-550 hp.
Just send Charles an email or call him. Tell him what you have and he will give you a good price on what you need left to have a good fuel system. He won't force you to buy a whole kit when you already have working parts.
About your hp goal. You will not need heads. People have gotten up into the 700hp range on stock heads/cams. I would recommend some cams but heads are a waste of money for anything under 800hp on these platforms. They really won't net any extra hp and the cost is high. It's not like a domestic that will pull an extra 50-100 hp just on head porting. You will essentially get nothing but what you will gain is the ability to make power over 800hp. Since your goal is below that I wouldn't waste the money. I would prefer not to have my headwork so my power curve would be in the lower RPM range for street use.

People are making +500whp with just a fuel pump and injectors.
The only thing is missing from the stage 1 is the fuel rails.
OP, do you want 625whp on pump gas, C16 or E85?

Mine dropped off at 507. I just went straight to the twin pump since I was switching to e85.
Upgraded supply line, larger rails and one of the new large single pumps would break 600 on pump.

BTW; thank you all for chipping-in on your insight. It's interesting to have real-life stories instead of talking-out-the-culo wishful thinking.

I know 600hp isn't technicaly "Daily Driver" power, but running race gas or meth or anything like that is to lose sight of my goal to remain as much a street car as possible while having 575-625 hp.

It's so easy to give into temptation and go all-out on this, but i keep wanting to stress the fact my build is centered around 1 word; STREET.
