Add a second 255 to the tank and forget about it. I've had my fuel tank out more than once as my power level got bigger, 3 times to be exact Also nothing worse than having to stop tuning the car because your out of fuel, especially when your tuner is busy like mine.

I keep reading that two pumps is usually the route people go with FI. What are the best pumps to use?

Send pics of your J bracket and everything that came with it to Bob@Brutespeed. He'll help you identify and replace any missing pieces.

Did you get the stand off nuts and the studs for the alternator to mount the J bracket.

No you can't use the stock fans. You'll need to change the shroud for a single 16" fan.

Forced induction, turbo is the best way to go. The real question is ,,, does it fit into the budget? N2O is fun for the money.
