    TC78 (Shipped out from Turbonetics on Tuesday, I should have it tomorrow or monday)

    Still need to order:
    FUEL PUMPS! lol
    Maybe a wastegate

    Just curious, but were you still going to do a set of rails from me?? I can't remember if you were sticking with the 93 setup or going to a 94+ Front crossover setup.

    I don't have a 94+ intake and haven't really looked for one to be honest...

    To ask you though... how would I be able to go about hooking up the aeromotive regulator to my stock rails?

    I know basically how to do it with your setup and if I find a 94+ for a good price I will go with your rails. Guess I'll start looking

    I don't know if you could hook up the Aeromotive to your rails. I presume you could if you could find an adapter to hook up to the stock rail fittings and kind of plumb the aeromotive inbetween the lines/rails. Of course, you could just get a stock styled aeromotive if you're going that route. Fits right into the stock rails.

    Yuck I guess I bit myself in the ass with that one... I really like this regulator though... my buddy uses it on his regal and it's very simple and well designed... maybe I will HAVE to get your rails now... looks like I have to find a 94+ manifold for a good price

    Well, like I said, I know they make adapters and such. You're planning on running -AN lines from the pumps and ditching the stockers right?? If that's the case, run the -AN's to a y block to a single into the stock rail inlet via adapter, out with an -AN from the stock rail outlet via adapter into the Aeromotive. Should be readily doable.

    I was actually hoping I could keep the stock lines because from what ive hear people are 800whp with stock lines.. so Idk... it all comes down to $$ right now... I have to get this done this semester no ifs ands or buts

    I too heard of people getting high HP numbers and rocking the stock lines. Heard the same from people using dual Walbro pumps. I didnt want to risk it with the lines so I sumped the stock tank, ran all braided line, and installed 2 Walbro inline pumps. No feakin dice. Had to sell the basically brand new pumps, buy more fittings and braided line, and get a big single pump. I ended up with an Aeromotive Eliminator.

    I guess its because of the fuel consumption requirements of FI motors. If you need 85# or bigger injectors, I wouldnt risk it with the stock lines and dual pumps. FWIW, and IIRC, the 'bolt-in' Aeromotive kit that uses stock lines and an external A1000 pump is advertised to only 700hp N/A.

    Dual walbros will hold well over 600whp easy... my buddy ran out of fuel on a 74mm turbo with a V6 at 550whp on a single walbro. I will not do an external pump no matter what.

    I don't/wont need 85# anyways, my 60#'s will work out fine. I would never run enough boost on this motor to need 85#'s or more. I'm trying to work out something with fastbird at the moment for a custom double pumper. Might end up with AN lines from front to back even though, as we have discussed, it is most definitely overkill for my setup

    oh an p.s. turbo wont be here til friday... not today like it was supposed to be
