    Im not sure, but if it is, ur good.

    I think the problem with supplying your own is adapting it to a 3.5inch tube.

    I don't think we have room for a 3.5 inch tube. My 3 inch DSS shaft is as close as I think it could be to the plastic gas tank.

    Ugh he won. He got me by 1.5-2 cars at 150. But I guess considering he's making 900whp I can't whine too much..

    That's impressive! See how much boost are you on now? I've lost track.

    Ctsv is also 20% heavier so it needs 20% more power.

    There are some 640whp CTS-V's trapping 134 and 740 whp's trapping 138+.
    I'm interested to see OP hit the 1/4. We may see a 138-140+ out of him beating up on some of these cars.

    So me and zack are discussing getting me more fuel.

    My plan is to add an in line 044 pump and that should be enough pump for 8-900whp.

    Then we plan on bumping my base pressure up to 73 which should give me 1150ccs of fuel which I hope to take to 750+ whp XD

    Doesn't he need pumps in parallel versus in series to keep up with the demands of ethanol? Can't see 8-900whp being made on stock lines w/o the pressure cranked up, and even then you'll hit the pump reliefs before you make it (saw one white wagon do it with a BAP, tried to copy that setup and ran out of fuel)

    With e85, me thinks it's more of a volume thing ie. pumps running in parallel, larger feed/return lines to support your goals. At least in my experience that's how it worked for me. Twin 485s will support more power than any of us are making, with the right components around em!
