Re: In Line or In Tank fuel pump questions..... that's an in tank. i think youre confused...your fuel system has 2 pumps, an in tank and an in line. There really isnt a which is better, they kind of serve 2 different purposes. But for a 150 shot you should be fine with the stock fuel system, but it would be pushing it. Upgrade your injectors maybe, and your intank and inline to be safe. But i dont have nitrous yet, im still learning about the juice as opposed to NA, so any spray guys that want to support what i said jump in!...

Re: In Line or In Tank fuel pump questions..... Your car has ONE fuel pump. You don't need to worry about injectors on a wet shot. If you are doing a big motor with nitrous you are going to need the dual intank setup. Try ARE if you can get ahold of them.

Re: In Line or In Tank fuel pump questions..... I am doing the dual intank set up from Racetronix ... I used to have (still on car)
stock intank and the Vortech T-Rex inline (sucks <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> ) pumps , but they have less flow/pressure than the Walbro GSS-340m so I am yanking both the stock , inline , and getting the dual intank (GSS-340m) pumps connecting to stock fuel lines to 50# or 73# injectors (still don't know which to use) .
Later ... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />
stay safe

Re: In Line or In Tank fuel pump questions..... R U A LS1 - Let me see if I can help de-confuse you. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
From the factory we have one intank pump. That's it. <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" />
If you see someone mention that they have an inline it is because they have added it.
Racetronix makes a single or dual(for big power) intank setup that replaces the single stock unit.
The Vortech T-rex inline is aftermarket. I think what bowtiepwr meant was that he was removing his stock intank and his inline T-rex and replacing them with a dual intank setup.
Hope that helps some.
