So if I get the fuel pump then I don’t need to run a mix anymore? No other requirements?
It’s recommended to upgrade your in tank fuel pump alongside your high pressure fuel pump if you’re doing straight E85 but there are no other requirements.

I would take anything that is said by that guy with a grain of salt. Horribly biased reviews from a questionable individual and thats putting it lightly. Hes also "Aston D Martin" on Facebook.
Not even his real name and he scammed a bunch of prelude guys for a lot of money back in the day

I knew this was coming lol, I legit wanted members thoughts on using just the pump but I am very aware of the reputation and situation..I guess that answers my question and reinforces my thoughts
Luke from 4Piston responded to a question about upgrading the fuel line with the XDI pump. His response "I've made 600whp on the OEM High Pressure line and OEM in tank pump with XDI pump and injectors." That should answer your question about running just the XDI pump. There was skepticism from the beginning about the Hondata Fuel System just being a pieced together kit of miscellaneous parts. I never bought it because the price seemed unreasonable considering our HPFP was always the weak point. The product reviews page will defend their "partners" to the death, they even delete comments about the poor quality of the HiRev taillights and ban folks for asking questions about them.

Them taillights do look nice though

They do, the quality is just not there though. To many of them have problems.
I know a guy who had to get 3 different sets sent to him each one having a different issue. At least their customer service seems good

For the price, the Mugen ones should come as sequential. It’s hard to pull the trigger on the hirev due to the quality issues, but I do agree that do look good.

If the Mugen ones have better fitment and you don’t need to go through 2-3 lights I say it’s probably worth the less hassle even without that feature at the higher price.

I’m just looking for a reasonable tune to not hit 100 duty, not 600hp like you guys. Can’t wait to see what you guys come up with!

Assuming you can pull that much fuel trim out (~25%)
As far as I know the overall fuel trim has no limit, the closed loop system however will not go past 25%.

yup exactly, plus you get Jdm points lol, honestly those lights wouldn’t even have existed if mugen didn’t come out with theirs if you think about it..anyways back on topic!

I’d say they wouldn’t have ever came out if mugen had made a good product. The mugen taillights have worse issues than the knock offs at a premium
