what type of fuel are you going to be running? If you switch to e85 you will need larger injectors for sure

I'll b honest man...I really like the simplicity of the BR double pumper, and that's y I got it. It may be on the expensive side but is well worth it. It requires no rewiring and takes around...45 min to install if you take your time. Is just all in wat you wanna spend. I have an FP Black as well but mines DBB. I ran out fuel on e85 around 480whp. That was a single walboro (modded)

im on 1250 cc, check out my thread me and Tom had goin on 3 months back before I blew my headgasket lol(was still on stock head studs) I've since added gsc s3's and a BR double pumper. WHP can easily go into the low 600's, but I have to make a decision if I want to or not since I am on stock bottom end.

Personally, I like to do things once and be done. If money is not an issue and your looking to go with E85 and more power in the future, I would go with FIC 2150's and a BR double pumper.

you are correct rmorr, it would be nice to have both injectors and double pumper ready. . am not thinking about E85 right now but maybe in the future when the funds get back up.

e85, larger injectors, and a fuel feed line (-6 or -8) upgrade instead of double pumper.

Thanks bro, will replacing the fuel feed line work as good as replacing the fuel pump for E85?

FP Blacks don't really like pump gas, If you have E85 at all convenient, I would definitely recommend it, plus you'll easily make your power goal with it.
