Default RE: Just ordered a Vortech S/C

My problem is, on the dyno after 6250 my fuel pressure dropped, soI had my tuner put the rev limiter stock. I'm brain storming on this hard. Might be a few thingsI need to do, possibleupgrade my fuel pump and extend the limiter higher or just leave it like it is.HellI don't know.This crap gets on my nerves sometimes.Ya'll vehicles looks great, good #'s. I'll figure something out.

I don't know, this been on mind for awhile now, it seems like I go throught the gears so fast, especially 3rd, it feels like that gear doesn't exist.Car isn't my daily driver, heck i don't know, just one of those things. What RPM's you shift and where is your rev limiter set?
If you had a loss of fuel pressure at 6250rpms then have it checked out because something is wrong. If it's not your daily driver keep the gear, when you go supercharger you'll need to insure that fuel pump is ok and I would install a second pump just to be safe. I have 60lb injectors as well.

Good advice! You cant turn up the boost if your fuel system isn't up to par. Thats just asking for a costly repair.

Hmmmm... the Vortech Kit comes with an added fuel pump. You should not be having fuel issues up to 450 rwhp at a minimum. but certainly go to the GT500 pump if the tuner cant find any issues with the Vortech set up.

I've beenlooking at the GT500 or the Ford GT supercar fuel pumps,I'll choose something soon.
