[QUOTE="XCSEDAN, post: 15021202, member: 165702"] yep, i can definitely see the benefits to it for you then, shame you cant add a flex fuel sensor and just tune the engine through that, i've got them on most cars that i put aftermarket ECUs in. definitely run a fuel cooler if you plan on doing a lot of street driving, always better to safe proof yourself :) relax buddy, i work in a race shop, we constantly have issues with external pumps being exposed to the elements and debris, and over heating in summer on long drives or freezing in winter, there is nothing you can do about it, it's the biggest downfall of an external system. you can boot mount them which saves a lot of issues if you have a fuel cell, but then the heat becomes more of an issue. when you're talking about 8 second cars, having a pump heat up and drop fuel pressure even for a second is not an option. they definitely have their place, but for constant street usage i wouldn't recommend it, for an EFI application i usually recommend a multiple in tank pump setup over a big external for street duties, for racing, external or belt driven.
