Because those power levels quoted for what it's "rated" at are at 3 bar of fuel pressure. AKA, you have 2,000 cc injectors on a naturally aspirated engine.
Set the base at 60 PSI and run 30 PSI boost, (90 total) and all of a sudden that pump isn't flowing 1/2 as much as it was.

The trailer has an issue the the axles being off or something. Loading the car futher back would cause the trailer to fishtail. Thata a diesel e350 doing the towing and I hardly noticed the car and trailer back there. Not having cruise control was the biggest downer. Car is safely in my back yard.

Car is safety in my back yard. The plan is to do a leak down test sometime soon. Then I will pull off the ALLOFIT artech setup. The car will go back to natural aspirated and I will get AC/PS installed. After that I will get to working on building a low mount AC/PS compatible absurdflow manifold. It will go on with the v-band 6758.

Fae is getting this turbo.
It will be going on this manifold. I will also be adding AC/PS back to his car.

Cant wait to see it. the EWG EFR;s are physically large turbos, Im sure it can fit with AC and PS... we will see how well!

There is no reason for him to have a 60psi base pressure either...
I made 59X whp (backed up with mid130mph traps in a 3400pound car) at 28psi on e85 with a 45ish base pressure with a single one of those pumps. So again ..he should still have MORE then enough pump with a single on with 93 and meth. Just seems like a waste of effort if hes not in true need of the twin pumps..even more so if its having issues.

In reality I think I was limited by the intake side and probably the cams. Needed bigger IC piping. Bigger throttle body. Better manifold. Big cams. All that stuff is standard for 600hp+ 4 cylinder builds. When I was running 40psi I am quite sure that the car was not pushing 600hp...
No. Its' tiny. It's like, the size of of of your peenor.
