Hey thanks Puff, Do you many people actually stage them mate? I will be running 2 460s in a surge tank on e85 and tuner is a bit worried if one of them fails! I also have a Turbosmart fpr1200 which he is concerned about. He said he doesn't think it will be up to task as far as letting excess fuel go! Any info appreciated....Cheers.

I don't know how many people stage them, but it seems like a better option than running them both all the time. 

 

Having them staged will rule out issues with the fpr, but I don't know if it would be an issue in the first place with a reg that size, even with both pumps running. 

 

I wouldn't worry about a pump failing as this can happen anyway. You can build in redundancy but it's not something you would do with a street car.

 

For exact numbers etc I'll tag @JETURBO.
