[QUOTE="Van@RevanRacing, post: 9124895, member: 69847"] Many of you might recall my epic woes in trying to tune my GT500 when I initially installed a Whipple 3.4 on my car. Thankfully I was able to get it tuned remotely through the help of Jon Lund. My goals for rwhp were modest as I was searching for 650 rwhp which should not have required 72 lb. injectors and/or a BAP or MSD Boost A Pump. However, I was told I was going to need these based on the preliminary data logs with my car on the dyno. In working with the folks at Whipple they sent me a wiring diagram that would utilize two MSD Boost A Pumps as voltage amplifiers for the FPDM's. For obvious reasons Whipple would not suggest I purchase anything from Kenne Bell, so they directed me toward the MSD units. The MSD units that I purchased were specifically designed for Return Style Fuel Systems and I was uncomfortable at the time going against any manufacturers suggestions because I was having so many freakin' problems. I opted for the Kenne Bell Dual Boost A Pump as it was designed specifically for the GT500 fuel system. My simple point being that it seems logical to increase pump voltage as Ford has been doing it for years and all of the major manufacturers of superchargers knowingly and openly recommend and/or sell different fuel pump voltage boosters to help with fuel delivery. This includes Whipple, Kenne Bell and ProCharger. All things being equal, I have worked with both companies and I have had both superchargers on my car. Both supercharger companies provided me with different options and solutions for my fuel delivery needs. Both companies condoned this application. A little background, I am an electrical contractor by trade and immediately questioned the validity of increasing voltage to the FPDM's. I understood the theory, but I wasn't interested in burning up my pumps. After some due diligence on my own and some phone calls to friends at Ford Racing I was assured that increasing the voltage to the FPDM was acceptable and it would not adversely affect the operational values of the pumps. I spoke with a lot of people at Ford Racing. The guys at Ford Racing basically said, "Dude, don't worry about it, those pumps can take it". Whipple referred me to MSD Boost A Pump (Specific Part No. not available) Kenne Bell referred me to their Kenne Bell Dual Boost A Pump Procharger offers the Procharger Boost-A-Pump There are pro's and con's to all applications however it requires some due diligence, reading and preparation before making an educated buying decision with these products or any product.
