Above 4psi the magnafuel 750 turns on and both the stock in tank pump and the external feed the rail. Then I have some short runs connecting the regulator return to the stock feed hard line, and to the tank return bulkhead. Should keep the fuel cooler and not need a pump controller.
you added a pump to the passenger side???

factory uses a vacuum system to transfer fuel form passenger side to the driver side by using the pump

Ah, I guess that's true, I just was thinking 'assembly' and said pump.

Here's the driver side (left) and passenger side (right)

Lots of pulls is from my car Jeff Yeah those are from Bills three camera's I had on my car. And yeah I've made 1068-1089. This weekend I was running on my base boost in which it makes 950-1000 depending on the run. Atleast thats what the dyno says after multiple pulls most were like 968,972 etc... But it shows how close in power we were!

Cool, I remember you mentioning the min/max range at the shop but wasn't sure where it was set at those nights. Those cameras got a ton of footage, thanks to you and bill for putting that together so I could see the car in action.

Did you put the regulator CAP/BLOCK off on the passanger side, or does it go in the drivers side?

Yup. I have the stiffest spring in the Tial too so it stays closed at part throttle and doesn't make the car sound too much like a street sweeper since the proflow is muffled by the filter it comes with. At full boost though the tial pops off.

The cap/block off goes in the driver side in the fuel pump assembly so you can run an aftermarket regulator. There is a 'cap' that goes on the passeger side though, but it has holes through it to act like a bypass. This allows the base pressure to drop as low as you want on your aftermarket regulator w/o impacting the fuel transfer capability.

Ok cool(thanks!), so you had to put one on both sides? My car runs a standalone ProTuner 750 so all i have is a transfer hose/pump, filters and regulator. About to do a buddies C6 and I was gonna pretty much use your build as a reference chart Since I haven't had experience with that before. Where did you get your caps/plugs from? Also are you using any particular C6 Z06 pump setup from any particular year? ZR1 pump an option for an intank? or are they the same? I know when I worked for Cadillac, the XLR V's shared the same pump as a Z06... anyways, thanks for the info.

Yea, it takes one for each side and you can buy them from Lingenfelter (one is blue, one is red). I just upgraded to the C6Z pump because I broke a fitting on my original pump housing, the stock C6 pump + an aftermarket external sumped off the tank like I did would work fine. The ZR1 pump is variable or something and can't be swapped into a non-ZR1.

Here are some pics and footage from the Texas Invitational. The car has been running awesome... one case of driver error on a missed shift, but besides that one pass she ran consistant mid 150mph passes all weekend. My best mph was 157mph.

Day 1 grudge matches and qualifying:
(hp number is off on Nine Ball's viper, thought that was his no nitrous number, but it was more like 900)

Day 2 KOTS and 6-speed challenge:

Lining up on the grid before heading down to the staging lane


Awesome shot from day 2 qualifying racing the EVOMS GTXXXX 996 (forgot to turn on go pros this run)


cooling down before the next run


my race against the s/c viper
