Default what parts are needed to increase boost for Stillen Supercharger
As of right now I have the following parts/upgrades on my car:
  • Stillen supercharger
  • topgunz air to air upgrade
  • walbro 520
  • ID1050x injectors
  • CJM twin fuel pump
  • CJM S1.SE return system
  • Motordyne cats and catback exhaust
  • Stillen headers

I've read over 50 pages on the A2A thread and cant get a definitive answer on what parts are needed. I'm looking to get around 500-550hp. Also I will be running 91. Also Seb is currently tuning my car. Thanks for the help!

How much power are you planning to make ?
That would tend to determine what upgrades are needed

good point and I was just thinking about adding that. Would be happy to be around 500-550. Will be running 91 octane unless you guys recommend other wise.

13 psi is about the max you'll be able to run on 91 octane. With the 9lb pulley and a 2.85 sc pulley, my car made 12.86 psi and 586whp on e85 with the same upgrades that you have. I can't remember what my 91 octane numbers were but was probably a little over 500.

I would go flex fuel. 91 and e85.

You list a single walbro 520 but then you show a CJM twin pump. Why would you have a twin pump set up with a single pump?

I got the twin fuel pump assembly for a pretty good price. Also when I took out my stock pump assembly the rods were already broken. So instead of buying a new nissan oem assembly I just bought the twin assembly for a good price.

And when you want to go for big power (and you will), you'll need twin pumps.

You'd never be making enough boost to lift the heads.

It depends on what fuel your using. Boost pressure is knock limited.

Single 520 paired with 1050 is way overkill for 91. Not good to run rich in low boost.
