Default Paxton supercharger

So I have a stock 2005 mustang gt that I plan on putting the Paxton Novi 1200 supercharger in. I already have the 39lb injectors my question is what do I do as far as fuel pump? I don't plan on doing much after it is supercharged besides tuning. Money is an issue since I'm on a college budget haha.

Honestly I would wait and save for the 2200 kit. More power with the inercooler it's easy to install yourself too. I did mine on a college budget bartending.

You can get a KB boost-a-pump to take care of your fuel needs

I have the 2200SL. I opted for the GT500 pump because i have had past issues with a boost pump. Spend the extra coin IMO. I have been under boost for 4-5 years? I have not had a problem as of yet.

As Cutter said, the boost-a-pump will work, but I agree with all the others....definitely save your money up and get the Intercooled kit & the GT500 pump.

What does your budget look like for suspension mods? You'll need to be able to hook up.

IMO you should never do a supercharge project if your on a tight budget. It always costs more than you plan. Even with a complete kit you still will need gauges, suspension mods, proper tuning, and possibly a new clutch to handle that power. What happens if you cheap out on a proper tune and smoke your motor? Can you afford a new one? It happens.....If your really on a tight budget stick to bolt ons. Less chance of being frustrated and carless.

My suspension is fully aftermarket, I have the tune that goes with the paxton novi and I actually already have the 1200 and just about all I need and I'm picking up the boost a pump Friday. I just didn't know if the boost a pump would be a good option.

My BAP works fine. GT500 pump is a good option as well if u plan on doing more in the future. When it comes time for me to swap motors i will be switching to the 500 pump.
