Will I need fuel upgrades when adding a 2.76 upper only?

Will I have enugh fuel if I add just a 2.76 pulley and 4 piece idlers with a tune? The only other mods I have are a fipk and Bassani X and catback.

Thanks.

You do not need any fuel upgrades.
Just slap that puppy on with a good tune. :thumbsup:

Awesome, I was debating doing the ported blower route. I just can't justify going that way if then I will need a bap, 60's, lower pulley, mafia, ect. just to take advantage of it. I'll prob then just go with the 2.76 and then eventually just go with a single turbo kit.

No.

you dont need 60lb/bap/or lower for a ported blower.

Have the shop log your max MAF voltage and pumps. Only way to know for sure. Many have pegged their meters w/ a 2.76" upper. (I was pretty close with just a 2.93").

every car is different and the only way to know for sure is to datalog the MAF counts, FPDC, and drop across the injectors. my car ran out of pumps with the 2.76" upper, and then ran out of injectors and MAF with the stage IV port. why chance it?? you don't have to be prepared to upgrade your fuel system, but you SHOULD check to make sure you'll be ok. my car is an exception to the rule.

I just run a 2.76 pulley, 100 mm idler , custom tune, magnaflow mufflers only , new steeda cai . 471 hp and 491 tq 91 oct , 19 timing, a/f 11.7 - 12.0. spend all your money on the tune !!

I have a couple of guys putting down 500 hp with ported blower,lower pulley, bap.maf,60 injectors and there only 1/2 to 3/4 of a car length faster !! (not worth the extra money to me)

save your money for a turbo system or a whipple.....but then youll need all the extra's !

don't port the blower unless you plan on spending a lot more than planned. Friend had a stage 2 port with 2.93 upper only and everything was almost pegged, and had 502rwhp SAE.

I ported my blower and it ended up costing me a 2400 MAF, 60 lbs injectors and adapters, KB BAP - I ended up spending a LOT more than planned!!!

With a 2.76, idlers, good tune you will be fine and have a lot of torque!
