600Rwhp guys.. What fuel system?
What system is everyone running? Saw the racetronix system on thunder racing and i'm wondering if anyone is running it.
Setup is going to be a forged 6L with 15-17 psi from a Novi2000 kit.

with 15-17 lbs out of a Novi2000 and a forged 6L you'll be WAY over 600rwhp! If you do plan on running that much boost expect 750+rwhp, that would require a complete fuel system upgrade.
(600rwhp would work fine with a Racetronics pump)

Your 97 has the return line. A good in tank pump (LPE) and a BAP with 60# injectors should get you to 700 maybe more. Marko (the guy with the new twin turbo system) was making over 600 with the stock pump and a BAP.

Yep, if its for the 97' you have a return system. For that HP level I would use a bosch 420lph pump # 0 580 254 044 with a boost a pump and modify the stock bucket for it to fit.. Thats what Nick Yoskin is running at 18psi of boost..He has some pics of how he made it fit in the stock bucket...

How about "more than average"
Feel free to give me a buzz if you have any install questions!
Thanks

That pump can handle substaintially more than a Racetronics pump, so when they are paralleled together your more than covered.

Hey Doug, if you running a little low on fuel and on a road course, will that setup suck any air from fuel slosh if the pickup ring at the sending unit becomes exposed to air under hard corners??

I have the LPE, Kenne Belle BAP and the 97 return system and it works fine, however I am on the edge I bet and I would put in the Bosch pump if I new about it at the time

Nope,
It pulls from the return of the regulator, the return of the factory sending unit, and our seperate feed. If you run that dry....your out of gas!
The return of the regulator gets used last since it generally creates a vaccum effect that pulls the fuel from the additional feed first.

Now don't ask me how I know.

I have an LPE pump, KB BAP and a A&A return line system with adjustable fuel regulator and return line on the fuel rail. The A&A kit and installation was very reasonable. Pressure stays at 58-61 no matter how I drive the car.

Doug's C5R vert with the Novi 2000 will make more with the fuel system. When the Novi2500 comes out this will be the ultimate supercharged system & when mated to a turbo400 tranny about the closest you can come to the maximum strip/street setup on an IRS
I have a C5R blower shortblock waiting in the wings. Can't wait to blow up the 402!! But first we want to see if we can get 8s out of the setup as it is
