Yeah I stopped running e85 b/c of the distance and I'm pretty close lol. I just don't go on that side of town. Now if there were more e85 stations around here, I would run it.

You might be right. Better vote for a liberal if you want more subsidized race fuel lol.

Good looking setup! Hell of a fuel system, from my research you should only need twin GT pumps and a BAP, any reason you decided to go for triple/80 lbs instead of 60's? Just a safe fuel ceiling?

Also, have you looked into the killer chiller mod instead of meth? I need to do more research on meth, idk how well it blows thru superchargers.

I'm planning to do the 2.9, twin GT pumps, BAP, Fore/Division X hat, 8 an line, 60's, and long tubes and shoot for 650 wheel I also read on SVTP that the stock half shafts can hold a lot of power as long as your easy on them, so no drag launches without using slicks or a soft sidewall tire. The stock half shafts just don't like it when you do a 4k clutch dump on Sticky Nitto's with no sidewall lol then the shock of the launch gets transmitted into the driveline and boom. lol but idk? I just have a pullied eaton so take that with a grain of salt lol.

I figured i was already dropping a ton of money into the supercharger, and 60s were the same price as 80s so i went bigger so i could have room to grow. Im only running 2 Walbro GSS342 Fuel Pumps with room for a 3rd but i doubt ill ever need it. I run a boost a pump also turned on the lowest setting just to help balance out the power going to the pumps. The pumps/lines/rails/hat were all part of a kit with everything needed to make 850+ hp so i jumped on it. Even though its not cheap, fuels not the place to skimp.

was from lethal, i think i snagged the last complete set they had before FORE went bottom up. They have the new stuff coming out, or already out thats the exact same though. Seems like alot, but when you break it all down you save a ton getting it all from them. Comes complete with all the AN fittings, Upgraded wirings and everything. all you need is injectors.

The older nitto's suck but the new ones are good. I drove a gto with a set on it a couple months ago and it hooked good.

yeah those arnt AS bad as the 555r model. but for that price you can just run some ET streets. I got the 555rs thinking they would last alittle while at least, but ive only driven maybe 5000 miles on them and they are getting ready for the garbage.

555R's FTL. I switched to the NT05 and they are a little better.
