Correct me if I'm wrong but all a BAP does is supply more voltage and AMPs to the stock fuel pumps, thus over-driving them

How is this safer/more reliable than getting replacement pumps with an adequate flow rate?

And are the focus pumps really only good up to 530rwhp???

Dammit.. another whipple guy :D

Seems you can never mod the Cobra enough! I try to perform some of the most desirable mods each year as the budget and wife permits. Bought the Whipple along with all the necessary support components a few months ago. You do some more research and reading, then you decide you should beef up all the drive train components to retain the durability and reliability, add the add the cost of the additional components along with perfessional istallation and tuning! It never ends!

Well....I was told that the Focus pumps will allow me to go as far as I wanted...and NOT to put a band aid on a situation that requires quality and reliability.

Good sales pitch, or fact...I don't know and I didn't look, but I have the Focus pumps so I hope I did right.

Son of a Bitch!

I just read that info from Kenny Bell and I'm pissed. I hate when I don't look hard enough at a subject. I have the dual Focus set up and I'm OK, but I fear failure, and also, I realise that because of my FKG GVT,,,, ALCOHOL eats pumps...it's only a matter of time that one will fail and so then I will put back my Cobra pums and get the BAP?

I also just realized I didn't get my original pumps back from Sutton....WTF? I hope they still have them.

Just remember who wrote it. He is obviously not going to praise Focus pumps.

Isn't this the same company with the oil spewing blowers? :dunno:
