Default Need Fuel system advice for my DP

I am looking for a quick fix. My NX direct port kit seems to be running out of fuel on the top end of the track. I already have an aftermarket 255lph intank pump. What is a good in-line pump to run to help keep the fuel pressure up? The last race of the season is in 3 weeks and I am trying to break into the 10s in Germany. Any advice out there?

Dont even bother spending mad money on beefing up the intank/in-line stuff. Give Nitrous Dave, or Matt @ HSW, a call and get yourself a dedicated fuel cell. Best option for you. Allows you to run any special blend of race gas, adjustable fuel pressure for the nitrous side allows super fine tuning, clean install and wont tax your engines fuel system when activated.

I plan on doing that once the car is back in the states. That will be in Dec/Jan time frame. I am just looking for a quick fix right now.

you have other issues probably the tune. the walbro is plenty of pump. do you have a hotwire kit for the pump? what about a voltblaster? those 2 things will help,,,,, but i think the setup you have should deliver enough fuel to easily get yo into the 10's

How much power you puttin down, you will probably need the standalone like Charlie said, my racetronix was good to about 650 rwhp, but after that I had major issues and bought myself one of HSW's standalone's.

I am not sure on the power numbers. I cannot find a dyno over here that will let me spray it on the dyno. I would say around 550-575 rwhp on the spray. I may just buy the stand alone fuel system right now. Thanks for all the input.

Reurn and regulator at the rails will support 700hp with your pump and a hot wire. That's the real issue, reg at the tank, not a pump issue but rather a supply issue. Like was said, you can also go dedicated fuel cell, which we offer also.

I also suggest going dedicated. We have two versions to chose from. One mounts in the factory barttery location and one goes over by the radiator.
Let me know if I can help.
Thanks
Dave

Thanks for all the suggestions. I am going to get the Hotwire kit right now. I will order the stand alone this winter. The car should be back in the States in December.
