>I have the Walbro 255 340m intank and Vortech inline.

Re: fuel pumps ... what are you using?

I personally am running dual in tank Walboro's. I have a Hobbs switch hooked up to my intake, and when it reads that I am running more than 4#'s of boost, the Hobbs switch kicks in the 2nd fuel pump. Everything works great with the exception of the rubber hoses falling off the pumps during driving at first. I have since switched to braded in tank lines, and have not had an issue since.

Re: fuel pumps ... what are you using?

What size injecters are you guys running. I see a lot of success from others with the Ractronix plug and play intank fuel pump, 60lb motrons, and a KB boost-a-pump. Rich Krause on this board made 733RWHP and 8XXRWTQ with basically the above setup (He was using 70lb injectors I believe) On average I think that is the recommened fuel setup for 650-700RWHP, anything above that Dual intakes are needed.
How much power is everyone Pushing??

You might be able to get away with

Ractronix plug and play intank fuel pump, 60lb motrons, and a KB boost-a-pump or MSD BAP as that is a P&P with the racetronix kit ....

Re: fuel pumps ... what are you using?

thats only 100$ cheaper than the double pump setup...how reliable would the racetronix and MSD pump booster be? Seems like it would fry the pump with all that power going to it..
