Cam & Fuel system Done!! WOW

I wanted to try a fuel system configuration and see how far I can go with it. I am running Fore dual 450’s in a NON return setup..So far it is working great! The Vaporworx unit can be setup in two configurations, first is constant pressure like our stock FPCM (however the Vaporworx unit can deliver up to 60A) the second configuration is boost reference. This is how I setup my system, in a boost reference setup the system mimics a return system with a 1:1 rise in FP. I set my base pressure to 58 at idle I’m seeing 52 psi FP under boost I see 70psi rock solid.
The system consists of the following:
Fore dual pump hat w/ 450’s
2 psi Hobbs switch on the second pump
Vaporworx controller
1000cc injectors
-6 feed line to the stock rail
I have had a turbo on my car for a couple of years now and the car made good power on the 100% stock engine. On E85 the car made 656rwhp at 12psi. Not bad right, well I decided it was time for the LS3 conversion and a nice turbo cam. I settled on the Tick Performance stage 2 turbo cam with the new fuel system and cam at 13 psi the car made 740RWHP through a 6L80 trans!
Needless to say very happy with the results and my IDC was at 70%

That's sweet, Vaporworx figured out a non return pump controller for high hp apps., I know he has been working on it for sometime, opens things up now for those who don't want a return setup.

Wow. Great news. Thanks for sharing your review of this. There's a market out there for higher output return less systems. Maybe Vaporworks figured this out...

Very interesting, thanks for sharing. Any trouble codes you had to deal with? Or smooth sailing the entire way?

If you don't mind, how much did it set you back?

What are you running for the feed line? and did you just end up capping the return line on the hat?

I'm running -6 feed line, and yes I capped the return port on the hat.
