Personally on a 150 shot I would swap it out. Once you truly hook a 150 shot you are only going to want more. Buy a minimum of a racetronix 255 with hotwire kit. Many of us are spraying over 300 with this setup.

What all is done to your car? Regaurdless with a150 shot you need to upgrade the fuel system but the question left open is how much power total?

The racetronix is good for up to about 650 rear wheel on most applications.

I'll disagree with the 650...
I'm 525 to the wheels... And on a 100 shot, the racetronix kit couldn't keep up...
I was ok on the drivers side, and lean on the passenger side by 2 whole points...
Enough power to get to my drivers side, just not enough to keep up with both sides of the stock fuel rail...

Depends on how much your base HP is.

Our DW301 should be able to get you well into the 700s at 4 bar base fuel pressure. ...and more than that if you are using a 3 bar base.

300 Liters per hour should be enough to get most NA people up to a 50lb-55lb injector...ish...
and should get most people into the 750 crank horsepower range safely...

sounds like a good option to me for most application...
might be a little on the Low side for a 300 shot on an already modded motor though.

That's with the fuel pump seeing 13.5V, too.

Bump it up to 16V or 18V, and you'll get quite a bit more.

So should I go with a racetronix? All probably be pushing the same amount of power with n20.

The hotwire kit is intended to supply the electric system's voltage to the fuel pump. So it should be able to provide around 13.5-14V to the fuel pump.

You are going to be pretty close to the edge, I would imagine. Be careful when tuning, and make sure you are where you need to be AFR-wise.

Your 300 shot a whp or crank estimate?
