I was planning on upgrading the fuel system until I added up the cost of everything lol.

I’ll look into auxjection and price that out vs the LT4 fuel system.

I really don’t track/race the the car. Mainly just a few roll races with friends, and spinning/sliding occasionally.

What would you guys recommend is the best “budget” friendly out of those mentioned options? I’ve only got about 3k left before the wife starts looking at my sideways lol.

Also, my tuner mentioned just adding an alky meth kit, but I’m hesitant to go that route because I’ve never heard any of you knowledgeable guys on here even mention that?

Thanks again Ted & King!

Yes, Kevin has definitely been in touch LOL! It's all good and I'm peer pressuring him into a better fuel system before he tries to up the power.

Kevin, its not just about the *volume* of fuel (although that is critical) its about the *quality* of the fuel too. E85 is great since the octane number is spectacular and has a tremendous resistance to detonation. It also helps cool the combustion chamber due to it's high latent heat of vaporization. However running E85 means the fuel volume being delivered has to go up at the same time since E will have less energy per gallon (roughly 30% less) so you need more volume to get to the energy level needed to properly support combustion (air and fuel in the correct ratio). King has so many good posts on this throughout the Forced Induction forum... well worth the read.

In any event, this is a bit off topic of 2650 vs 3.0L... Both blowers can deliver a TON of power when done right.

You are welcome, There are a lot of options to add additional fuel but I always lean toward simplicity and reliability, Nothing is better than OEM parts in this case.

If it means saving up then be patient and do it right.

Why add complexity to your build when you can just use OEM parts.
