Yeah buschur offers their own fabricated "double pumper" system with dual walbros, so its nothing new. Only necessary for people running high horsepower.

search search search.

The walbro is usually good up to about 560-590awhp depending of the car at which time you're maxing it out. The double pump system is usually seen in cars running 37r or larger turbo kits. There are some 35r's that require it on race gas but not too many. 35r will most likely require one if you decide to run E85.

Insuring a surplus in your fuel supply is a basic concept in developing high HP cars. If you're planning to do any substantial modifying for higher HP, I'd not suggest that experimenting with how far you can go before you blow up your motor is a responsible approach.

Ive been running the fullblown setup now for almost a year. I have my fuel top working in dual feed mode. The standard walbro from our testing maxes out around 530whp anything after 530whp you are asking for trouble.
With alot of people switching to E85 and the fuel demands it requires i would put one of these full top on my shopping list. LJ is awesome to deal with and anytime ive called him he answers the phone and takes the time to answer any questions i have

The Buschur might be functional, but the Full Blown unit is a work of art.

thats weird....my car made 698awhp @ 30psi and the single walbro works fine. BUT, at 35psi it gives out so im switching to a dual setup (trying to break 800awhp)

Would love to see pics of the setup and data logs. This would be a record on a single walbro

How many people are going to see the work of art?
Thats a pretty ...... statement. Go with what works and obviously if its a better price than its that much sweeter.

There are several differences in the Full Blown setup versus the Buschur twin pump, which accounts for the difference in price. The most obvious difference is the CNC'd replacement fuel assembly housing on the Full Blown, compared to an adaptation of the stock plastic housing in the Buschur setup.

Different people have different solutions to a common problem. Different buyers are attracted to various solutions. Some look for lowest price, some look for looks, some look for engineering or technical components of the items offered.

I say it's good we have options for everyone.

People have different wants. Some people value pricepoint above all else. Others value fit and finish. Now we know where each of us stands
