What fuel pump are you running? My tuner is telling me to get a Ford GT fuel pump. Would the SVT focus pump work fine?
Also are you running a blow through MAF (post blower) or a draw through because the tuner (who is also gonna finish the install... Code tell Matt I'm sorry but I can't figure it out.) says that a blow through will net me more power.

Prochargers are generally blow thru setups. You will not make signnificantly more power with either setup, its a matter of the blower companys and your preference. Draw thru mafs ARE supposed to be easier to install though.

I had called Ford to find out how much a focus pump would be and he told me $230ish. I am getting the GT pump for about $120 so I am ok with that.
The car I am driving in the mean time is by no means fast but its still pretty fun to drive. 1991 Mazda Miata[:@] Its a freakin glorified go-cart...

RE: F/I 400hp question
Well thats alright its done either way. I was more concerned with the MAF than anything. I told the guy to do whatever he thought was safer to make 400whp with. Also they are finishing my install for me so I will be back down there today right after work to check on some progress. Hopefully I have it back by next Monday. I would be extatic if I got it back by Friday.

RE: F/I 400hp question
dont wanna burst your bubble...but car work rarely takes shorter than expected...often times longer. they told me 3 days...4 MAX...and they had my car for about 2 weeks.
i have an SVT Pump and an 80mm MAF right now...but the MAF is pegged and will be getting a 90mm Lightning MAF...prolly draw-through whenever i can get some time off work/school and get to the shop...maybe not til spring break [:@]
current #s...362 rwhp...after new MAF...expecting ~380ish...
