Anyone local used one with success?

Got an offer on one, but I haven't heard great feedback about it.

I ran that last year, on my 6266, didn't have any issues with it.

I think Scheides is also using one, or maybe he is still on the normal 450 not the e85 one.

Besides fitment changes that were needed, no problem running mine.

I am on the e85 one works good with the 35r.

I'm talking pushing it to over 80psi fuel pressure.
35+psi on top of standard 43.5 base fuel pressure.

Seems like a few are having issues with higher boost levels.

I ran 32psi and my base fuel pressure was 50 or so as that is all the lower I could get it with the 450 hardwired and my return setup.

So I was over 80psi but I ran out of pump at that point too, so who knows.

I believe Bobby also ran that in his last Evo and had great results.

I've had one for....idk I can't remember how long. Years now. It's seen up to 36psi, made all the difference over my DW300. I'm running the non-e85 w400, it's been on a BAP its entire life and on my X I had to bore out the siphon but other than that no major issues. Running on a lightly modified stock FPR and aftermarket rail to get base pressure nice and low.

Works great, hella bang for your buck.

I also have one... upgraded when I ran out of pump with a single 255HP. Pump works amazingly well when your fuel line does not have a hole in it. Although I run kiddy boost compared to some of folks here, it definitely has enough fuel flow for mid 10's on a 20g.
