When do bolt-ons need more fuel?
Quick question guys:
2018 ZL1 10A Mods: Rotofab Dry Tony Mamo Ported Throttle Body ATI lower crank pulley running 15% wheel Fully ported Jokerz LT4 Super charger NX Express Ported Supercharger Lid Coolingmist Stage 2 Progressive kit with 3 nozzles Texas Speed LT 1 7/8” Headers, ceramic coated, no cats. I reckon that’ll be pretty close to 700 at the wheels. So am I ok for fuelling? (We only have 99RON pump gas here , equivalent to just over 93 Pump, hence the Meth kit to increase the RON and lower the charge temp)

Your way Good on fueling. The meth helps carry the fuel system even further. That meth kit is pretty cool btw.

If your running meth I doubt you are at any limit to the fuel system. Still I would get a low side voltage booster. That’s my next upgrade

So, I've got headroom and am nowhere near maxing out the pump with regards to flow needed?

With meth, the fuel max is allowing my car to run E60. Definitely look into getting one |

Thank you appreciated. From the research I've done overnight, looks like the Voltage booster is recommended for cars running over 750 wheel. I think I'll be running 680 without and around 700-710 with, so will there be an advantage in upping the voltage and a lower requirement?
I have no issue buying one ( it's not like I can drive the car at the moment anyway!) but would like to know if I'd receive a benefit. My power calculations are based on the assumption that intake+ported stock TB+ported lid+15% lower and 1 7/8" catless headers =+100 WHP Fully ported charger = +30WHP Meth Kit= +30 WHP Would appreciate your opinions

We've had some bolt on cars well above 700rwhp on 93 alone. If you plan on running E85 or anything like that just do a low side pump upgrade. The DSX aux pump has been very popular. Nice set up too.

Thanks for the replies all - @Juiced, E85 will never happen as we can't get it here, so the car will be run on the equivalent of '94' pump (E5) and 50/50 water Meth for cooling and slight ignition advance, not totally dependant on it, so a kinda half way house.
Cheers

Im sure your car is definitely in the 680-700whp range. The fuel max is good because it keeps the pump consistent at all times and ramps the voltage to 17v when over half throttle is applied. I think you’ll be fine without it, but it wouldn’t hurt forsure. Just sharing what I’ve found helpful |
