Mine peaked @11psi at a boost friendly altitude.

Stock fuel pump / lines.

Roush 38# squirters. Roush MAF is 108mm so no worries there.

The PN in the kit comes back to these:
http://www.roushyatesparts.com/parts...0002-11-aa.htm

Which appear to be advertised as 38# units.

So I guess, if I want to push it, what am I looking for on the fuel system support?

I have a 255lph pump coming, will this be enough?
I currently have 38# injectors, will this be enough?
I currently have the stock maf, will this be enough?

Currently running a 4# lower and stock roushcharger upper pulley. I've read and heard that I could go to a 6# lower without issue. I have a 8# at the house. Obviously I will require retune.

Would it be more advantageous for me to send the blower and lower manifold out for porting instead?

Yeah I have some Troyer 48#'s but went with the Supplied 38's.

100% recommend getting the blower ported, scilencer holes filled and work on the plenum hat.

The tuner accounted the steady boost to the Stieggy port.

The stieggy porting, is that the manifold, hat, and blower that he quotes out at $750? Is tuning required if I get this work done?

Don't know. I never ran it stock.

I lucked out and bought the set up already @ stage V 'Snake-Bite' conversion. So I had it rolled as is.

I assume the work is just the blower case and a front end rebuild.

IDE send it in for a port, silencer holes filled. Maybe have the plenum hat
Hump removed and the TB ported.

Any DIY options on porting? I have access to plenty of air. Just curious.

At what point does one need more fuel pump or injectors? I have a 255lph pump coming.

Ok, I got a gt500 heat exchanger and steel on order to mount it out front.

Should I even bother with keeping the roush behind the ac condenser and run both, or stick with the 1 out front?

Will be mounted something like this when done:

Run both. Put the Roush in front of the ac condensor and I would mount the GT500 behind the bumper opening.
