Question Inline/helper fuel pump?

Hello, I just bought a ZEX high-output nitrous kit for my car. My mods are in the sig. I put down 430 RWHP. I am looking to run a 100 shot with this WET kit.

My car has the stock fuel pump (36 lb injectors though). Should I be able to get away with the small 100 shot on my fuel system, or, will I need to upgrade the intank pump or add an inline?

My car runs great. I would hate to have to lower the tank OR hack up the car to do the trap door..... Maybe someone can enlighten me to a good and easy to install inline fuel pump?

Thanks!!!!!!

I have about the same n/a hp as you, and I am about to spray a 100 wet shot as well. With that said my Walbro 190 was barely enough for my n/a power, so there is no way the stocker will keep up in this situation. Check out the Ractronix kit. That's what I went with

Agreed. What you're wanting to do doesn't sound feasible. You want to put a pump inline that is going to be pulling fuel from the weak link just the same as the motor would be. Fuel volume is fuel volume and your stock pump won't keep up.

I was hoping Nitrous Outlet was going to chime in.... Thanks, I guess I need to upgrade my fuel pump before hooking this kit up.

Yep, and this is why I just ordered a Racetronix kit with the Walbro 255 and hot wire kit. No screwing around this time
