The plan is to add to the fuel system as needed. We were unsure of fuel pressures that is why he added the gauges. He has all the flexfuel system so we are seeing how far it will go before an upgrade is needed. We may need to drop his boost a little until we have everything finished.

I agree with that idea. Adding a fuel system as needed would be nice. That way you know how far you can push the stock pump. If you don't do it that way and the secondary pump fails without you knowing you could run it lean quickly. You're best off pushing the single pump to it's limits of flow, dialing everything in, then adding the second pump just to take some stress off of the stock pump. The flex fuel pumps are big volume to start with so he will likely be fine anyway.

the whole run was started rollin thru second softly and then increasing trottle watching boost #'s along with fuel pressure and afr,thru some additional tuning a
