What is the rating for the fuel pump? Is it enough by itself for a turbo or S/C set up? I think the Paxton has an extra pump, does the Roe come with one?
 
stock fuel pump sux, at least get a walboro 255 pump and a pressure guage maybe even a regulator, but a guage and pump is a must and the walboro will fit in the tank

The roe uses all stock fuel system. :) It's truly designed as a bolt on. I'm sure 1fast upgraded with his setup, i'll probably get flamed for mentioning his name.. oh well he's got a good Roe build none-the less.

oooh, where did the Roe run out of room? I was hoping to get up to 1000rwhp.. or am i dreaming
 
My Paxton setup uses two jumper pumps.
85 psi. under boost,no problems yet,but I run a modest setup.

Which FMU disc are you using?

Mine came with the 8:1, but I opted to start with a 10:1 to see if the Paxton stuff could possibly keep up at a few pounds of boost on my setup.

Also decided to equip the pumps with separate power feeds off of the battery on relays triggered by the Split Second box. Just don't understand why the kit comes with heavy gauge wire for the pumps, but tiny wires coming off of the SS to feed them. Hell, even the power lead to the SS is smaller than the wires running up from the pumps. Anyway, this should make the pumps work as good as they possibly can, and prevent heat build up from undersized wire feeding them.
