thanks all for your input. I will PM everyone if i decide to sell it. Really appreciate the input. I honestly know im not going to upgrade more hp for a while because next step for me would be a built transmission. In not TOO crazy about HP

I say sell it and your good until you up the boost in the future....if you need the money you need the money....

I know my tuner is using the stock pump with no BAP and w/AUTO trans at 550 RWHP with the whipple and meth inj (raises octane and cools greatly). Nothing done to the trans except for loosening the TQ converter....he runs high 10's at Milan dragway....over 25+ passes....so if your not going to the track and not beating and high RPM'ing the motor all the time you should be golden.

Later when money is not "needed" and you have some to spare and you up the boost (which I know you will) you can get the GT500 pumps.

Hell I ran my whipple for over a yr before getting the GT500 pumps and no issues and no BAP.....my max duty cycle for the stock pump would start to "max out" after 6500 RPMs and I have my rev limiter set at 6700 RPM's and I always shift just after 6000+ rpms ....not saying that I wont blow the motor even with the GT500 pumps.....too many factors to take into consideration.
