i got one, i can't give you an exact hp but i have ran 8psi on a 6.0 with a 10.5a/f ratio and have also ran 6psi with a 35 shot on the same motor. i watch the fuel presure and it holds steady the entire run.

i have heard that these inlines are noisy but i can only hear it when i am pulling out of the garage with my window open.

BTW, I ordered that pump from Speed Inc. and it is the Walbro unit. Mine is very quite too.

This may be a dumb question, but...

If you run an inline pump such as the Walbro, do you need to add an external pressure regulator as well? If not, how is the pressure regulated?

HMMM, never thought of that, mine is on a truck and we have the regulator on the rail.

Can you run the inline pump all the time or do you need a hobbs switch?

no, ALWAYS run both pumps at all times unless you make a separate fuel line for the inline with a checkvalve

if you try to make your intake pump push through the in-line, you'll kill both
