Wait, you're using a focus pump and 42's? What's your duty at? Everyone that I've seen with that combo ran out of fuel before 450rw. I doubt it but Are you running a BAP?

yup literally just a svt focus (green tab) pump and 44's. nothing else, no BAP


fuel pump is maxed out though, tuner said to keep shifts under 5900 cause it was getting way lean after that or something i couldnt understand him.

still though, even my TUNER said what u just did, most people run out of fuel around 380-400 rwhp with the focus pump and mine made it ok.

bought it used on ebay in 08', for like $35

Well, I don't know if it's worth it to you to have it tuned again but if you have a chance to jump up to 60's and dual cobra pumps with a BAP that should take you to a reasonable & safe 550rw. I bet your tuner can tune in a few more peak hp at 5800-6200. If anything, get a BAP and see where you stand.

What's you goals for the car?

out of cash now but a forged rotating assembly is on the to-do list now. at the same time i guess ill do the fuel system to; i was told to not even bother with the stock style system and go to return style???

i mean i wont ever need more than 650 rwhp, this is a street car that occasionally see's the track. at the most i would only port the heads, add blower cams, and max at the s-trim blower, and maybe, MAAYYYBBEEE up it to a t-trim and thats it.

dont know if it would be worth it to go return?

If you can afford to do it or you can afford to save for it, absolutely! I didn't mean to say to upgrade to a inferior setup.
