[QUOTE="04sleeper, post: 16552161, member: 34911"] Every car is different. One thing to note is the simple age of these cars now. We are talking a car that is pushing 18-19 years old now. The stock pumps were not that bad when new, but after 17-18 years, they may not be as strong. Neither is the corrugated fuel line in the tank. (Or vacuum lines for that matter.) Datalogs are the key to knowing what the car is [b]Actually Doing. [/b]Each car will be different. Once you get to the point of fuel upgrades, I don't recommend a BAP anymore. These pumps are old and now we are pushing them on an expensive engine. GT Pumps are an option, but require more voltage and more demand. (Also require a retune). The stock hat only has 1 set of wires for the pumps. With the GT Pumps, you really need dedicated wiring for each pump. Now we are talking a better Fuel Hat. Then you will need to upgrade the wiring to the hat and upgrade to a modded FPDM or go to a Dual FPDM setup so the stock one does not go into Thermal Shutdown. At this point it makes better sense to go with a real return fuel system and upgrade. The benefits outweigh the negatives. Even though they cost a little more $$$, they are still WAY LESS than a new engine! Same goes for a good wideband. A necessity for ANY Forced Induction car in my book. Also, as far as MAF's. If you are seeing 1000 MAF Counts, that doesn't mean you are safe from pegging it out. All it takes is a colder day and you could easily max it out. Hope this helps, Kevin [/QUOTE]
