Once you can out brake your car with track rubber you can simply go for upgraded lines and fluid and most importantly pads. You have to be a purposefully hard and/or talented driver to over power such a system.

Agreed, well said.

The final production pieces to the fuel system have been installed and tested. Plenty of fuel pressure under WOT, AFR's are nice and fat. The car drives extremely well, can't wait for the airstrip event.

Under the hood, the FPR on the drivers side, teflon steel braided line feed the fuel rail -

Steel pressure and return lines -

The setup is completely custom, it's a single pump setup, that's about all I can say now.

Thanks AK, clutch seems good. My original stock clutch was beat up from the tons of 1/4 mile runs and launches, etc. As long as you keep those in check it appears the stock clutch can handle 620whp.

So go for it Broski!

Okay, so, what I would prefer to have happen with all the boosted cars, is a complete list of what everyone has done in a stickey. This way, I can make an educated decision. For example, I might call up ESS and say, can I have the Drew set-up please. ESS would reply, sure, that will be $X for his exact set-up. I will then ask the wife, who would then smack me. Nice build!
