Also if someone answers this could they possibly add what a K8 and a ZE can handle?

K8 with a good fuel pump 255lph 75, but thats pushing it.

On Probetalk.com and MX6.com I recall reading about built KLZEs doing 125, but Id say 75 is pushing it even on that motor stock

As for Trevor:
Considering you car puts out a gigantic 88hp. I think a 55 shot would be pushing it.
It all depends on the condition of your engine too. If you decided to jump to a 55 shot I would suggest upgrading your fuel pump and clutch, because you stock clutch would burn out fast on a 55 shot.

I think a 35 shot would be your best bet, however it would also rip apart your OEM clutch quickly

KL03 - 100 shot wet and 91 octane, stock timing and ZFR6F11 plugs gapped to .035 I was gonna up the shot to a 125 on race gas, but never got to do it. Sold the car.

KLZE - 75 shot wet on 91 octane, stock KL-36 ECU, and ZFR6F11 plugs gapped to .035 I am still going to up the shot to 100 with race gas.

K8DE - Never tried it...sorry

B6 - Never tried it...sorry

A walbro 190lph is plenty for a 50-75, 255 is overkill

You can run a 75 wet on the stock pump I know for sure, Most cars can handle 75 wet easily.
