Bad *** build! Please dont clear over the paint, it never looks right. The feed line from the sump to the pump doesn't really appear large enough. It really needs to be -12 and have a huge 100 micron prefilter so the pump doesn't cavitate.

We need an idle vid, lol
Where did you mount the fuel pump-as you have prob read, some guys had trouble with the 1800-i have the little brother 1400, I mounted it right in front of my tank, also sumped, so the fuel will gravity feed to it all the time.
I also found a ball valve, no restriction, and mounted it right out of the sump. After having to drain my tank to open the system, I said this isn't going to fly, lol
By the way, my pump has been in for 2 years, zero problems

Thanks! It's -10 to a 100 micron filter attached to the pump. Should be good to go. I know a lot of people running big numbers on -10 feed. Plus I'll also be spraying methonal on top for intake temps. But if I run into any issues I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for the heads up though man!

890 HP to the rear tires with 19 lbs of boost on a safe tune and as smooth as butter. Not a bad setting to start the summer with. I can't thank Don at Slowhawk Performance enough for patiently tuning this thing. There's more left in it but the car isn't even ready for it just yet. It's crazy how effortlessly it makes this power. More updates to come.
