I wouldn't risk running just the stock pump and bap with that power. I was running 780rwhp on a Z06 pump and BAP. It was working but I knew I was pushing it so I added the ECS stage 1 fuel system at that time for safety. Easiest route to go.

I was making 690@ 8lbs boost on a mustang dyno with Stock pump, BAP and METH and was having issues with fuel pressure dropping after about 6400 rpm. That was with a 4" blower pulley and 8.5" damper overdrive pulley. We ended up going to a 4.5" blower pulley and are now about 7psi boost and able to go all the way up to 7000 rpm but I feel the fuel is at its limits on my car. I went with a FORE Innovations stage 4 double pump set up with return.

That Fore system is a work of art.... really nice system. I guess it depends on budget and I prefer not to drop the tanks.

Indeed.. they have a beautiful setup. Not cheap, but I've never heard of anyone having issues with it either

My bugdet is determined by my credit line! LOL i spent about 600 more but the system is limitless and done right the first time. Ill be doing the work myself so Ill know the work is done right.

Im doing my Clutch so im just taking advantage of doing all these mods at the same time given that the drive train will be out

if your making over 700 with the stock clutch, its going to go eventually. Sucks to be running that GTR and you get a good jump on him and at the top of 3rd gear your clutch spins and he walks on you.

I agree with overbuilding. Hate doing it twice. In my case I got a fuel system good for 1300 rwhp with the YSI kit I bought, so I used it. If was having to buy one I would have considered the Fore, although I really prefer external. Dropping the tanks is just a pain... been there... done that... lol

Yea putting a monster stage 2 clutch in it. I had no problems with fuel pressure at 707rwhp with bap and stock pump on meth. We will see what it does on the dyno this week. My tuner is very good so we will see

Why not one of their LT1 based ones? I don't think the stage 2 ones are rated high enough unless I'm missing something.. they are a single disk I thought
