I can do E85 blends (my last 5 tanks have been ~e25, just have to go out of my way a little bit) so 93-94 octane results shouldn't be tough for me, but I'll need more volume, and that's gonna tax the HPFP.

If I can install a HPFP and LPFP, you can too.
Maybe you're just smarter than most of us Diggs...
That being said, HPFP easy, LPFP if you don't know have a dremel... not so easy. PAG Parts is releasing a drop in LPFP soon so maybe want to wait for that if you're not comfortable with the PR install.

Really? I like that idea. So drop this in and with just DI and stock HPFP good for 450? http://www.precisionraceworks.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=20_61&product_id=67

Sorry I have not read the entire thread, does this EQT turbo change the frame size at all?

It's an IS38 with a bigger wheel.
That comment was more to MPI labor, since the HP and LP pumps are relatively easy. Could I do the MPI myself? Sure, but I can't enable that without a tune/tuner being involved so I might not.
Also the APR HPFP is still a core rebuild, so you'd either need a second good HPFP or be without a car for a while, so that is equaling out some costs there.

You would need tuner support for any of these 3 being replaced.
you want to increase the hpfp targets to take advantage of it. using the stock hpfp pressure just forces longer ipw's which means you can still get injector misfires.
I am not trying to sound like a dick but, don't be cheap when it comes to modding a car to twice it's stock power. you are just asking for trouble.

True, depending on the part I agree. Support and benefit from are different things though. An upgraded HPFP can be ignored by the ECU (99% sure) and no gains had, some drop in LPFPs are supported by the stock controller, and MPI will sit there and do nothing after installed without the tune enabling it.
I guess what I meant was I could install the part and drive around no harm, no foul afterwards, but a $1000 MPI investment seems like something you'd want to immediately use and get tuned to have the benefit of.

Cobb is currently working hard on the DSG software. I know MPI is on their list, but not top priority right now. That said, you can do quite a bit with just a hpfp and lpfp upgrade without MPI.

I disagree. You can get away with 400-420whp maybe on the stock hpfp... and even then its pushing things. If you want to add any ethanol to the mix at that level, you absolutely have to upgrade the hpfp.
