Yeah I know what Iraq is...I'm an Infantry Marine. I also know that there hasn't been **** goin down there since 2008. Maybe some occasional attacks, but no more than in some movie theatres and streets in the US. My friend contracted there for a while too. The company recently layed everyone off....cause its dead there. Even Afghanistan has cooled off, and is about done....so no offense, but it was a valid question.

Well... No more playing around. CJM Twin Walbro 255 Fuel Pumps have been ordered. I'm officially out of turbo and engine before fuel!

Just got off the phone with PowerFab... Car is running strong other than fuel. Making 500ish on only 10 pounds of boost. Waiting on delivery of the twin pumps.

Talked to PowerFab yesterday. Twin pump was going in this weekend and back onto the dyno Monday afternoon. Hopefully this will solve the pressure drop and we can make some real power! We'll see what this week brings.

Yeah? I forgot I ordered them month ago. Wish I went with the SPL's as everything is else.

Just picked up a set of SPL Rear Traction Links from Import Part Pro.

So hopefully the last of the fittings for the fuel pumps/basket arrive today. Also hoping it gets onto the dyno and we can start seeing some dyno numbers. Been a LONG journey and ready to come home to a finished Z!!!

Fuel pumps are in!





Car was back on the dyno for some fuel pressure checks and its holding fuel pressure. I haven't received how much boost as been run or any dyno results. I waiting for the return of my Cosworth intake manifold (Thursday) and hopefully I have priority to get finished tuning. Last known results were 480-500whp at 8-10psi on 93 pump. As always I'll get the thread updated.
