There's something really weird about the X because it always seems to need way more pump than any other Mitsu. First we ran out of 1000cc injector around 410whp @DB and then we ran out of pump.

As you know, this is my second 044 so I know damn well it isn't the pump. The Bosch-brand 044 couldn't break 400 even with a BAP. I'm now running an turbine-based 044 knock-off from Jay Racing. It's fine during regular driving and on the dyno but not extended periods at 17.5volts.

Why? The traditional approach is dual pumps but many people argue that they aren't as safe as running a larger single pump. I could also go to dual Walbros, which is what most X owners do. It's just not convenient given the surge tank setup that I already own.

You'll also have to define 'street car' for me. My life would be easy if I didn't take the car to road courses. It's perfectly fine on the street since it's impossible to stay in boost for 10+minutes there.
