I'm considering adding another car to my fleet and have had a few people look at this dyno sheet and say the car is leaning out. I honestly don't know enough about it to know but don't wanna buy a grenade.
347 stroker sbf.
d1sc procharger
60 injectors
aeromotive eliminator fuel system
My question is this. The guy that tuned the car says it needs a product like a kenne bell boost a pump. Says around 5700 rpm the car is leaning out. I'm under the impression that a $2500 aeromotive fuel system should support 600rwhp easy. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Any more info that I may have missed let me know.

Fuel rails, lines, pressure regulator are all factors in how the fuel system work. What regulator are you running? What size fuel lines? What fuel rails? Also check your filter setup. That may sound stupif but we have had filters basically turn to mush and plug off. I would think that your pump would be big enough but the system has to be all in order for everything to work properly

This is the fuel system.

Aeromotive says the fuel pump will support 1400hp on a forced induction and the fuel rails will support 3000 hp. Sounds to me like the car isn't tuned right. Not trying to melt the pistons on a new addition.

If thats the fuel system I would say either you need to look for a new tuner, or the pump is a dud, or there are power delivery issues to the pump. I have seen it were the wiring was causing there not be enough power to properly power the pump. After replacing the wires in the harness it fixed the problems. I would almost think to start there.

Have anymore to add or anyone else have any opinions? I'd really like someone to comment on the dyno sheet. The tuner suggested a kenne bell boost a pump. I'm planning on picking this up in the morning.

I have a head, cam, supercharger with 60lb injectors on my 10 Camaro made 635 rwhp. I did boost a pump and twin fuel pumps. You can start with the boost a pump but i think to be safe upgrade the fuel pump.
