I've always been told to go with the GT500 fuel pump system. Part of why I'm considering the whipple over a kb.

The supercar pump isn't a direct bolt in, but it isn't difficult or expensive to swap in. My advice is that of most of the others you'll read on this forum, spend the money on the best fuel setup you can get, the GT500 dual pumps.
