Default Fuel pump upgrade choice?
Hi i'm wanting to upgrade the stock fuel pump on my 2006 Z06 to support about 800hp. What would be a good choice? Also I've been looking at clutches, does a lightweight billet steel flywheel weigh about the same as an aluminum and which would you suggest?

A BAP (boost a pump) will increase your fuel pumps flow rate. I've also heard they shorten the life of the fuel pump as well.
