pretty much.if your fuel pump either can't keep up or you want to run higher octane while on the jug the stand alone is what you want.the fuel cell is around .075-1 gallon and mounted either where the battery is or where the fuse boxes is.

the standalone has its own pump with the kit so there is always adequate fuel pressure. and you have the option of running race gas only when it the n2o activates. and you dont have to worry about too much fuel being pulled out of the rails on big hits.

i run the harris speed works stand alone so that i can just run the high octane when the nitrous is activated and also to support the 250 shot
