Very nice Shardul!!! What haven't you done to your beast? Looking forward to meeting you the next time I am in Houston. May be sooner than I planned after your recommendation of the new fuel rail/injectors.

I would like to know more info on how you are going to do this. What will happen if the meziere pump wants to pump more then the in tank pump?
