BAP or GT pumps?

I've got an 03 cobra tank w/ stage 2 modified FPDM and want to get it ready for future power levels (~600-650rwhp). Would dual GT pumps be more reliable or could I just put a BAP on the cobra pumps and call it a day. Do you need dual FPDM's to run dual GT pumps?

I have both a BAP w/ wiring upgrade & 2 GT pumps already, just need to decide which one to use.

Re: BAP or GT pumps?

I had Cobra pumps, with a BAP nothing else...600rwhp on 15psi. Pushed it to 17-18psi, still was good.

My FPDC was in the 72-75% range on the 15psi. Turbos of course. If you are running blower, it will be higher.

Re: BAP or GT pumps?

Ok so, 2 GT pumps or Cobra pumps w/ a BAP will handle the hp levels I am going for. Is one or the other more reliable? Would the GT pumps allow for more growth in the future?

Yes the GT pumps > Cobra pumps.

Re: BAP or GT pumps?

I have never liked the idea of the BAP.

Re: BAP or GT pumps?

meh...i went w/ twin svt focus pumps b/c they are a drop-in replacement for the cobra pumps and should be good for 600rwhp w/o a BAP

No doubt that the GT pumps are better , and will allow for expansion .
