Default Another Fuel System???

Thinking about building a separate fuel system for my nitrous only. Has anyone done this? What pump did you use and what psi did it make?

Thanks!

How much fuel pressure do you need, and how much fuel flow do you need ??

A 50 shot would have very diffferent requirements to a 500 shot.

Early on, I used a holley projection pump with a Jazz fuel cell and a universal holley fuel pressure regualtor and it worked fine for a 260 shot..

There are a ton of fuel pumps that will work... You need to decide how much you plan to spray.... Do you want a high pressure fuel system or low pressure?? Keep it simple! You could just us a Holley BLUE pump that can be had just about anywhere... Just make sure your fuel pressure/jetting is correct..

I'm thinking of doing this also. I'm planning on running a 250 direct shot. I'm guessing it would go: fuel cell->pump->regulator->y block->solenoids->nozzles. The main question I'd have would be what fuel pressure should I run??

I plan on a Jaz cell, Aeromotive Regulator and the pump I'm not sure of. Should I try to keep the pressure up at 59 or so like the jets are made for or sould I just get a pump and get the fuel jets to flow the numbers I want. Its going to be a 300 shot or so. I may split it up into a dual stage set up or something. I just can't decide on a pump.

bought a walbro high-pressure 255lph in-line pump. I have a 255 in the tank so I figured it should be similar. Now I just have to figure out where to mount the tank and pump.
