What hp level is 1 aeromovite a1000 pump atcually good to on a fuel injected supercharged motor. I'm not asking what their company says, i'm asking what people have seen.

If two are needed, is it okay to just run a -8 from one pump to one fuel rail and a -8 from the other pump to the other fuel rail. Also is a -6 still okay for a return line if that is done or do you need to upgrade to a -8 (this is with the 2 port aeromotive efi regulator.

fuel pump flow is directly related to the amount of fuel pressure it has to build up in the fuel rails. How much fuel pressure are you going to run under full boost?

I cant find the graph of the Aeromotive pumps flow rate vs pressure. Can you dig it up and tell me what it flows at 70 psi? I'll calculate things from there.

more than 550

i have two a1000 right now (long story) and I'm wondering if it's worth spending an extra $250 for all the fuel line to run both pumps. I'm also wondering if the correct way to do that would be to just run a seperate pump to a seperate fuel rail or if the correct way is to run them both to a y block, have one -10 or -12 line going to another y block and sent a -8 to each rail.

where is John91Coupe, he has two a1000s right?

UJSTLST, are you 50lb injectors going to be big enough for 750 rwhp?
