IIRC the stock fuel pump will support over 350 HP at 60 psi. So, if you =
run a 3 bar FPR there'll be enough fuel at 15 psi boost (I'm assuming =
your going to add a turbo with injectors that big??) to support 350hp. =
So, it'll pretty much keep up with the injectors you have as long as =
they're rated at 45 PSI.

PS. Don't know about SDS. When all is said and done it isn't that much =
cheaper, there are lots of things it won't do and it'll be tough to tune =
it since it doesn't datalog or interface with a PC. I was a big fan of =
Haltech, but their DOS software is pathetic and support isn't good. My =
next EFI project will be Megasquirt. After that I'd take a good hard =
look at DTA.

  Ok, I'm on my way to building an efi system for the 16v.  Got my =
injectors (mopar 50lb/h) and g60 seats and am going to order the Ross =
machine fuel rail today. I'm really leaning towards the SDS efi computer =
too.   What I need to know is will the stock fuel pump work with efi?  =
Does anyone know the psi/flow rating for the stock pump(s)?  If anyone =
else has done this conversion and has a comprehensive list of parts they =
used, I sure would appreciate any help you could give me. =20
