If you connect for boost reference, then yes....

Yep, drop those tanks. A recently failed performance shop tried to go the secondary pump route on my car and it cost me a new gas tank. Spend the money now to avoid regrets later!

just dont buy the UPP system. its a bag of random parts with no instructions aside from a youtube video that was filmed using a potato. Also they give you the wrong fittings - cut up an fittings instead of ORB An fittings. *barf*

Yea honestly the upp system is odd, but for $700 and maybe 700-800hp it'll work fine. I don't like how they recirculate the hot fuel back through the pump though rather than to the tank to cool off a bit.

I started with a upp system which worked OK but I re-did mine with dual AEM 400 inline pumps, -8 feed -6 return. All in all I've prob spent like $1200 on fuel parts with $700 of that being the UPP kit.. it's worth it to do some research and piece together your own system. I have my tank tapped for a -12 feeding dual -10 feeding the pumps and a -6 return. The feed is excessive but I don't want to strain them for fuel.

Also -strictly based off calculations- two 400lph pumps at less than ideal flow 'should' feed 1300+ on E85.
