Default DSX vs ECS E85 External Pump - ECS Worth the Extra $650?

What say you? Don't worry, be happy - the $1000 DSX external fuel system does what it needs to do so take that $650 and put it toward something else or don't be coy and pay the extra for the ECS because the A1000 pump is head and shoulders better? Short term goals are mid to high 600s via LS2 w/TVS2300 cam/heads/headers.

You do not need the A1000 pump for your goals, go with our stg 1 with the AEM pump. $1,200, the difference is in the filtered fuel feed and return block. Simply screwing a fitting into a plastic gas tank is never an acceptable option IMHO.

I had an ECS stage 1 setup on my car that worked great on 93/meth to 800whp. The bulk head piece for the gas tank is awesome. When I upgraded to the A&A twin pump return setup I bought his stage 2 bulk head piece. I have had a few A1000's and personally am not a fan but
people have good luck with them. My tuner ran the DSX setup on his ZR1 to 900whp on E85 with no problems. Once he cleared 1000whp it checked out.

Im sure the ECS setup is good, i have a DSX fuel system in my own car. Its on E85 and made 820whp. Makes a little more now. I liked the MAP controller reference for the pump. Cant go wrong with either.
