Well I believe its combination of everything.
I also have GH Tune, GH intercooler, K&N Intake, PPE Downpipes on order, few weeks out, backorder due to high demand.
SO the full pump will probably complete my setup with e30 tune

Once you get the pump, it changes your car more than you know! Went from an E30 tune on downpipes and intake to adding an intercooler and HPFP and HOLY **** does it rip now!

The tune, intercooler, hpfp, ppe dp seems to be the trick. I've emailed Matt on the price and gains from the turbo.

That is a hefty chunk of change. I saw someone say the stock HPFP can handle about 15psi which is stock turbo max..? So my question is, whats a roundabout hp/tq number you max at with the stock pump? I think I'll do tunes and bolt ones til the pump in topped out then look at weight management.

I just finished this track season with an 11.36 @ 122.68 doing exactly what you described....full bolt ons + Meth + Dry Shot of Nitrous and some weight management (seat removal) with the stock pump.

Mods: GH turbos, GH IC, Hot Pipes, Alky Control 100% Meth with dual nozzles, Zex Safe Shot Nitrous, Full Exhaust (catless downpipes to double x pipes straight out with tips, no cats, no resonator, no mufflers all 2.5" stainless) Sp542 plugs .028, 3Bar Map, UPR DVCC, AirAid Intake, Dicunzolo Trans Mounts, Derale 10000 series Trans Cooler, PP Trans Cooler, H&R Springs, Mickey Thompson Sc-5 20x9 Wheels, 1" spacers, Continental Extreme Contact DW Tires.

On a mustang dyno @19 PSI without Nitrous it put down 463/569. Fuel pressure with Meth held at 2400 psi with this tune. Even then and all throughout tuning my tuner (AJP Turbo) told me to save my pennies for a pump. Later on I found the limit with the stock pump and meth with a dry shot of nitrous to be a 75 shot. It still handled it but fuel trims overall were leaner .86-.89. And anytime fuel pressure dips, goes lean(1.0+)causes knock you are pushing it too hard. I Datalogged my runs and I had a very small knock event of + .02. I even turned my meth volume way up to try to compensate. Fuel pressure dipped for a second with the hit of the 75 shot...it recovered but I was playing with fire. I immediately stopped tracking it. It would be a long walk back to VT from NH. At such a high power level....I don't want any knock. I conclude stock pump+Meth car or an XDI pump e30 car can both safely handle a dry 50 shot. Now a wet nitrous kit would prove otherwise.

So with an upgraded HPFP and LPFP it will take it to the next level. I'll find out what that is in 2020.

You need to go get yourself a new PB time

I know, each time I want to go something has come up. It is rather annoying. I haven't even had time to mess with my splitter.

Well when you do get a chance to go I know you're going to set a new PB time. Can't wait to see your car with your Chin Spoiler and Splitter installed. It's going to look mean!

Will do. I have a Christmas shut down at work so I should have some time.

Looking to mess with the splitter. I need to replace my plugs, and swap over to the MSD coils. Another small paint correction, then re-ceramic coat the car, have Kyle build me an X as well, and she will be ready to ride for 2020. Going to also buy the XDI -35 and drop in LPFP early next year as well.

Don’t you have an Xpipe in your new resonator?
