Default Fuel system opinions....

Ok, not like this hasnt been asked bfore a million times. Heres the deal....

I have a Racetronix intank setup. I want close to 700 at the tires or even more on my turbo setup. They say you can go 700 with the kit. But how close an I to realy beating the crap out of that pump?

Then I look at LS1speeds fuel setup for just over 1K and I am thinking, thats a great deal for everything there. Then I know I wouldnt have to worry. I would of course upgrade to the eliminator pump. But this way its all done and then maybe I could go for more power then.

Then on the injectors, I origianly thought about the mototron 60's, but if my math is correct, at 80%, they should only take me to about 780. And if I want 700 RWHP, then those might not cut it. Low impedence are nice, low cost, but need a stnad alone or seperate box for them. IF thats the case, then that BigStuff 3 looks awsome.

So what do you think? Who would do what here?

yeah, thats the problem. 800 freaking bucks man. And what if i max those out one day too? Then another high impedence rip off. I might just go low imp and put a box on it or the Bigstuff3. I kinda like the part about individual cylinder tuning.

Yeah m to... i also like how BS3 changes your tune on the fly via reading off the W/B O2's....... no no matter if its 95 here today and 45 tomorrow im not afraid of running lean..... and different tunes for race gas is kick *** also....
Ill be going with a set of 96#ers so that ought a do her for a while....

So the BS3 will do taget A/F like the megasquirt then? If thats the case, then what do you think would be the selling point over the megasquirt? since mega is like 500 all said and done, and BS3 is 2500, what sets them truley apart?
