Sick! Everything else done yet?

Things are currently quiet.

Ohhh nice!!!

what pumps are those?

Walbro F90000267's. 400+lph/E85.

flow per each or combined?

Each

superflowage

OMG I'm glad you're figuring this out before I commit to a fuelling set up... are those trick basket adapters going to be made available?

*wink nudge hint

Looks like they'd fit in a cq as well...

That.... Is way awesome.

Are you going to be upgrading the line to the engine bay as well? or running stock size lines underneath the car?

I really like how that turned out.

That is awesome

You and Mushasho are the ones that convinced me to go with the 400lph, but it's a little easier with just one lol. Do you have a VEMS output to switch the second pump?

I will certainty offer them however I do want to get it all tested first.

Thanks man! I plan to try and run the stock line and see how that goes first. If I run out of fuel I'll suspect it's the line and replace it at that point.

You know Shawn, I had originally planned to just have them both run all the time, but now that you mention it I may decide to send a second trigger from VEMS to the second pump activating it when certain conditions are met (Boost/rpm/etc).

I bet you'd notice the difference in amps drawn, especially at idle because the one thing I keep reading about is how much current they draw, and I think that's what a lot of the DSM guys do but with a Hobbs switch, but making it tunable in VEMS would be sweet

Keep it up! I am super excited for this project!

With running one pump during normal conditions, it would give my stock fuel system a fighting chance too. Two of them running at idle would have so much volume, I don't know the stock FPR could handle that much. With a staged setup that would be much easier as there would be much less returning fuel once the car is in boost, etc.

I bet your idle PW's would be crazy low with both pumps running

It probably wouldn't idle at a decent AFR, lol. Especially with 2000+cc injectors.

You might do very well with 1200s if those pumps can flow what you need at 100 psi base (I'm not doing the math right this second)... those 1200s will flow 1700cc at 100 psi base. Just something to consider.

if you plan to switch on the 2nd pump under load, be sure there are check valves on the pump outputs. otherwise you'll flow through the non-running pump. general setup looks good though, definitely could be a cost effective high flow setup.

I think you may be right Chris! Maybe 2000's aren't necessary. I'd just hate to buy injectors twice.

Good call Marc. I'll have to check if they have internal check valves or not.

Now I'm just getting carried away....bored at work:

lol. I was just about to comment:

It almost looks like you could fit 3

, but you beat me to it

2nd the check valve on the secondary pump, a non running pump = an internal bypass.

Good news, turbo will ship this week

Ordered my CATS cams too, can't wait!

Hours of searching internetz I found a video of a car with the 1002305 cams:

sounds great...I'll buy your 7a cams if the avant doesn't get them.
