So happy you found the time to edit and upload some videos... You're a huge inspiration to me working on my JDM toys.. even though I fk most of them up!
Faston connectors are not designed to conduct more than 20A continuously. Make sure that your pump isn't taking more. If it does, consider using flat "midi" fuses, eye connectors and maxi relays with thicker 9.5mm power blades.
Enjoyed the build. Did you remove the fuel pump form the tank or do you use that to supply the surge tank. I was a little confused on that. If you removed it how did you hook up the lins at the oem tank?
You could do a clever thing, and mount up 2 pumps, then wire in a switch to the other pump, so you only use 1 pump until you need the other, then just flip the switch so it completes the circuit and you have dual-pumps!
Mainfold you would normally run a system off boost reference or track vs street tunes. Alot of guys run two pumps and have a 555 timer so they cycle every start. Basically so you run one pump but it switches every start To keep them fresh
justin credible I was more thinking for when there is more boost added as there is no point to adding more fuel until there is enough use to starve the system at some point, and then already having it put in and can just switch on the extra pump upon reaching such levels where more fuel is required later down the line (and could obviously be added to a street vs track tune, but pointless to have one turned on if it can't be used, so it would just be to have the work out of the way already). Alternatively having two different pumps for different tunes is a decent way of doing things like restricting power for different tunes. Having it on a toggle allows for hard-cap restriction regardless of how much you lead-foot it, until you decide it should give that extra oomph and turn it on
I have a question for you Alberto, are you worried about heating the fuel? As the factory or tank pump will be going constantly and be a heat source to the fuel its self unless its low pressure, , then the 400 pump to the engine will heat it again, have you thought about a fuel cooler at all? ( i am just learning what a killer heat is in particular to fuel, when fuel is hot it robs horsepower).
Thanks for the vids, very informative and will help my install immensely. In regards to the wiring for the fuel pump, where did you pull the 'switch' wire from? I assume the surge pump will come on with ignition or the same time as the in-tank pump? But how did you do that? Thanks in advance :)
Why not go Walbro 525Lph pumps? Believe me they're way better than DeatschWerks....Great to have a sponsor but DW are great quality average performance! The Sims music on the time lapse :))) lol
I was watching the video on my PS4. Maybe there’s a pixel or two that’s dead on my old tv. When I watched the video on my phone, I didn’t see anything. Thanks for replying though
