do i have enough fuel
well we drove 150 or so miles ran on the dyno and then almost pushed my truck into the lake never to be seen again. that being said here are my questions. I am running a modded CP3 pump from II with the dual feed line the pump puts out 30% more then stock if you ask II. I am only running 90hp sticks, problem was i only put up 549 hp i need to get a rail pressure guage to see where she is next time and i know i need to dump the PMT and bullydog i was just hoping for more out of it but was let down. So you who know the fuel side do you think i have enough going in. also i have bought 625 studs so i can crank up the boost out of my turbo how high can i go with out ringing the head. i have talked to more then one shop who wont ring a head on a street truck and i know you all have your own ideas so im looking for you boys who are running big boost and no rings. you can pm me if you dont want everyone to know what your running but the info would be great and help me save a tear down.

i didnt see any pressure which will add hp as well.is the turbo a 66?how much boost did you see on the dyno,often times turbos dont light well,thus max boost isnt obtained.low boost will yield low hp numbers...

does the mp8 work well with the smarty? once i change over then i will be good on the program and pressure side so i just need to work on the boost side and install the studs i bought waiting to talk to II on the fuel side and if they can upgrade my cp3 from the modded to the stage 3

You have plenty of air at 550hp. I'd say ditch the dual feed line. Then Get A higher volume cp3(II,Wicked,or Floor It) Then up your boost. for 90hp stix thats not a bad #. I've seen 150gph lift pumps support 900+hp,so your fine there.

I will be calling II and seeing if they can upgrade my cp3 from the modded they sell to the stage 3 they sell. i have bought the studs and will be installing them as soon as they show up that should allow me to up the boost out of the bullet i was thinking about going bigger sticks but II says the 90s are big enough to put down 700hp+ so we will do the studs, pump and then sticks if i can find a realable person to chat with on those.

I second this as both as myself and Bluechrome have dyno'd well with with close to what yo have with the exception of injectors. Ditch the duel feed line and in my opinion and some friends of mine which can remain unnamed the stock head gasket is decent up to around 60lbs of boost. I hit 50-55 lbs each day with water/meth and without not to say it will last like that for a long time but going on 6 months now. Use the Smarty tnt revo and adjust rail pressure with it. if you want a pressure box check classifieds for my Mp-8 and what for a response from me I am headed out to Ft. Bragg early tuesday morning to go to Afganistan.
