Default Power Potential for 340m Fuel pump

How much power can a 340m support? And if there is a difference supporting it NA vs. N2O then please post both. I am running the NXL, but am looking for the future mods and want to ensure I will be good for fuel.

The Walbro GSS340 can handle 600rwhp fairly easy. I know some people have seen more but I would not count on it.

Oh yeah, how about the stock lines, I heard they were more than enough, but probably meant more than the stock pump!

I would do the new lines and the rails at the same time. You can do a -8 feed line and use the stock line for a return.

Ok, on that note, at what point would the larger the fuel line theory need to be stopped? Lets say I only plan on making 800hp between motor and spray, would a -8 be good and -12 better, or would the -12 move the fuel too slow, or some odd thing...Figure if I can make 800 then 1000 just around the corner so why not try to build it right once....try I said.

I would not go bigger than -8 it keeps the pressure up and will feed alot of hp. 800+ you are going to want to do a complete fuel system tank, monster pump than -10 will work.
