I just ordered all the parts from summit to upgrade my fuel lines from the filter to the rails...i got earls fittings and earls stainless braided 6an line...swivell ends....its really gonna be cool...(hmm...Jareds Fuel Mod he he he)I was debating on whether or not to say this.......so im not...(the price that is....I have respect for Jim because this little setup was kinda tough to design so much that I think 200 is a respectable price and that If i were not ASE certified then I would probably be sending him the 200 bucks...

Jared soon to be 14psi(nah....9 tho...)

I bought two sets of rods off ebay and JE made the pistons 4 me, marion performance(after looking at me crazy as hell) machined my rods down for me, they were like "um....dude do you know what your doing" like 5 times...lol

Im not really gonna run 9 lbs i just want 300wheel...i could do that on 7 lbs dont you think with the JP Setup safc, etc

I will definately take pics of my engine bay after i install the charger and lines. Still waiting on the SC to come in, its coming with a 5.5 pulley. Really doesnt matter that its not here yet because i broke my axle the other day, it was a remanufactured one, and autozone was gonna replace it with a brand new one(not remanned) but the axle they got me was too long, and they had the same part number in their system for a manual as an automatic...so i got them to order a remanned one so maybe it will be right this time and I can get back to work on the engine.

I am going to upgrade my fuel lines first (before I install the charger to see if it makes a difference on NA performance.

Sounds like you are on your way to 300WHP. Don't know how long you've been on this forum and all that, but besides the fuel system being inadequate, the knock sensors are a real pain at any pressure higher than 4psi. Might as well relocate or go the the aftermarket sensors prior to S/C install.

My 2 cents. Happy tuning.

I have been a reader for over a year but just recently started acting on all the research i had done on here when my first engine threw a rod after the oil pump drive broke.

From what I understand the knock sensors blow because of a lean condition(or because of supercharger whine). Is this correct? If so, maybe wrapping the sensor with teflon tape or something like that would cut supercharger resonance through the sensor...?Im not going to run my car lean, as my supercharger came with an autometer air fuel guage, and I am NOT going to f up like that...Ill go to a standalone if I have too with high flow pump, etc(suggestions on that would be appreciated, Im looking for the most plug and play EMS)

I think a lot of the issues w\ the knock sensors are from the headers... if you try to run too much boost w\o a free flowing exhaust you will knock.. also I think that our fuel system has issues supplying that much fuel under harsh (beating the crap out of your car) conditions... If you hit 300 whp you will have massive wheel hop/spin and have a hard time getting traction.

If you upgrade tires to something more like slicks and drop the tranny to launch, then I would say you will have no axles left... I would try to upgrade that as well as a limited slip diff...

regardless, its going to cost a lot of $
