Walboro 340 gsm...many of the vendors have them...fairly easy to install...costs about $125.00. The optimum is hte Racetronix unit, which is about $285.00 and is plug-n-play. It also comes with the larger main wire for better voltage. If it were me I would go ahead and get the Racetronix unit (I bought the individual Walboro prior to the release of the 98+ Racetonix).

I am running the single Walboro with big gauge wire...everything else in the fuel system is stock...I put down 580 rwhp and 640 rwtque on a Mustang dyno, A4, converter unlocked. I have a boost-a-pump, but when I used it, even at a low setting, it just flooded the engine.

Some die at 400HP and some make it past 500RWHP.
Depends on your motor's BSFC and the condition of the pump.
It's basically a crap shoot in many cases.
The Racetronix system will be like an insurance policy.
