Still running my old dw300 pump. I have the fuelab regulator, which has been very reliable so far, I ran a simple bypass hose under the fuel pump panel. Return line to regulator, bypass hose from regulator to tank return, cut stock regulator tube, run pa12 hose to pump sock.

I have an extra bypass hose I made from pa12, plus extra hose that you can have if you want. However, my method is rather unusual and I can't remember which configuration I used with the regulator. I can find out if you want. I think the jury is still out on the pa12 stuff.

Nawaza - I don't think I'm quite pump limited yet, but when I am, I'm thinking I just swap out the DW200 for a DW300 to keep it simple. Once this regulator issue, and possibly fuel pump limitations, are sorted, I'm likely turbo limited to 325-350whp.

Finally got it to stick on the dyno. 343whp/449wtq on a Mustang dyno. And it feels glorious.
at this point it's both fuel and turbo limited, so I'm going to leave it as is for a while and just enjoy it.
Big props to 18psi for working out the kinks and tuning.

Looks like I haven't posted my big boy rubber here yet. 15x10 Dekagrams and 245 RS4s, which let me punch it in 4th and keep traction if I do it smoothly.
Don't judge me for the ride height. So many potholes...
