    External high pressure pump

    Had anyone used an external high pressure pump to get more flow? If you do the math the injectors have huge flow rates (even when considering they cant fire during exhaust stroke), so it seems the limiting factor of fueling the gen V is actually the high pressure pump flow.
    A common pressure washer shaft driven pump seems to offer a cheap solution, they typically spit out 4k psi which is may improve flow of the injectors, or could be regulated down to 3k. Just need to slap a pulley on it make a bracket, then have a hydraulic shop make a hose.

    Katech has this already:.
    I prefer port injection and can be setup fairly cheap

    Well looks like this is a stupid idea, just need comp cams to give me a 4 or 5 lobe cam for the pump. I see there is already support for this in the ecu with [ECM] 7060. I would guess this is not the commonly promoted method because people are making huge stacks of cash with the lt4 pumps and the big bore pumps. Lol this world we live in "Take my money I don't want to use my brain!"
