With the direction you are going, I'm sure your fuel system will be fine, but I'd prolly tell you to spend the money once and just do a -10 to the rails and a -10 return. That way if you ever decide to step it up to big dual pumps out back or that badass Weldon....it'll be more of a bolt in kind of deal.

Just a little advise from one boost addict to another.

Can you run the hose to the left instead then into the filter and pump along the tank? I wonder how the best way to mount them would be

Reason I ran it this way is because of the location of the pump mounting tab jon welded up for me. Ideally I would have liked it in the other side but I didn't specify. This works and magna fuel said I should keep the suction of the pump a maximum of 30" from the outlet of the sump.

I just keep making changes to this thing before its even on the road lol. Ordered a set of front coil overs and brackets from atomic and went with hyperco 850 springs. Should have them tomorrow and installed next week and ill take this thing out for a drive to see how the 850s feel.

That 850lb spring will probably be nice on the street.
