What was that a while ago you said ? " now way are either of us hitting 600rwhp? Looks like one of us just did and walked up to it !!!
I'm running -10 feed from surge to A1000 pump. then -8 to fuel rail (which is -8) and -8 return to surge. the maintank to surge and back is -6 feed and return I've put the eth sensor on the -6 return to main tank so doesnt affect the areomotive flow. when the pump gets hot its dropping pressure and not running a speed controller on it
The Aeromotive site says this' 20psi boost/1:1 Regulator, intercooler, 60psi and 13.5v, volume 529lbs/hr. 881 HP @ .6 BSFC So your 600whp, throw in 25% or a 750hp engine... its all ballpark for the pump. The mustang club seems to not view the A1000 with much positive criticism. Your going to need a bucketload more headroom when the e85 goodness is achieved! Have you considered a Weldon Racing 2035 pumo? Should flow like 4x the A1000!
interesting ..on the Aero flow Been reading alot of negatives on them too If I'm changing it will be fuelab because it has built in speed controller and plumbs straight up to my setup. and comes in 1000hp -105GBH 1300hp -140GBH 1500hp -170GBH @45PSI
Just a question, are the turbos ordinary run of the mill GT28RS's (GT2860-5) or what? Result is bloody impressive to say the least.
Reduce the speed of the pump using a FET relay and a PWM output from the ECU, less fuel being pump up to pressure and recycled to the surge tank will result in less heat in the fuel. the cooler fuel will help your pump stay on its top game. Also a fuel cooler and returning fuel back to the tank rather than the surge tank will stop heating the surge tank so much. Some of the after market rails do not have insulators for heat from the manifold to the rails, this heats the fuel also so it's a good idea to modify them and include thermal insulators to prevent excessive heat transfer. When tuning the car run with a full tank of fuel to minimise the temp (more fuel takes longer to warm up and more fuel in contact with tank so better cooling via heat radiating out from the tank). Making sure there is air flow under the car as well as through the rad etc also helps keep underbody temps down and fuel cooler. On the road or the track there is HEAPS of under car air flow and this does help keep the fuel tank a lot cooler than on the dyno.
Ahh ok cheers for that, Just so people know they can't slap some parts together and pump that much power :zlove: good job mate, can't wait to see this thing in action.
That's a understatement mine looks like a shelf item to yours ! Great work on the figure and with more to come ! Can't wait watching your thread eagerly
Remember I have a real 3.1 LITRE VG 3097cc not just pistons but chambers to suit with 1mm OS properly unshrouded . And the porting is magic big flow with wicked air speed .
So I have a fake 3.1 L lol :s Curious what difference the Gtx make ? Maybe a upgrade for you in near future ?
if the engine can take in the extra air it will make a difference .and the gtx can pump 28psi no prob but this is too much power for the track already and I can't turn the boost down at the moment .. this is as slow as it goes looking forward to seeing your GTX perform .. wanted a guinea pig edit -you dont have 89mm pistons?
I don't recall signing up to be your guinea pig lol ... What benefits does this come with ? And I have 88mm pistons so 3028 I believe lol So I'm a 3.03 big deal lol
