Don't plan on making 650 if you have a stock system.

an inline booster pump. Some people use them. I don't know how the option compares to replacing the stock fuel pump completely, though.

  • Sell it.
  • Don't mod.

Nothing about these cars is cheap. Not even routine maintenance.

Well we have not had it long cam only with a 3500 stall low 11 with a single nozzle 100 shot. I am putting alot of n2o on with a progressive controller if that don't run deep in the 10 I will turn the stall up to a 4 k. The problem I see with these cars is no one is sixtiey foot. The beast car I can find is like a 1.55 on a power adder.
