I run 2 washers on mine, never had issues, re-used old mls headgasket a few times not a problem. My studs are 8 years old and been used a few times aswell. Im only tensioning to 80ft lb If u look the thread finishes just below one washer level, i think this could be your issue.

Darren, Im only running around 8% of total fuel in WMI, im soon to test with a second nozzle and up to 15%. Yea the amount of E85 available in SA servos is crap, and none at all in country areas, so thats why im wanting to do the meth flex fuel. Do you know much about the sensors, and if they would work from 0 to 15% meth/pump mix? I cant get a clear answer anywhere on this

U got it darren. No e85 here, next best option. U played around with it before?

So anyone actually know if the sensors read methanol?

I run aquamist wmi. Awsome system with good fail safes built in, if one triggers it changes boost and timing map in my ecu. I have a 7litre tank for the wm mix and it lasts several tanks of fuel before it even gets close to empty. So no need to worry unless u plan a road trip around australia

Rb30/25 or rb25? I made just over 400kw with the gt35, that was rb30 tho

Lol, easier to carry a flex fuel sensor

Trouble is, then wen i fill up with pump fuel the tune is out a fair bit.

So do you think a 10-15% mix with pump 98 would go over 200hz?

Anyone know for sure?

Ecu is autronic sm4, so yes providing the sensor reads the methanol in some sort of scale as it doesthe e85

Does anyone know if ethanol content sensors will read methanol as a percentage in a fuel/ meth mix the same way they read ethanol %?

I have had issue on the dyno after 2 hours it started running lean and fuel pump was really loud, re checked mictures once cooled down and was back to normal. That is with in tank 044 with power feed from alternator.

Do you have issues with fuel overheating on long drives of 2hours plus?

Is that still with standard fuel line size or upgrade?

Jangles and GTRNUR, what turbos and engines you guys talking?

Any updates from today?How are your twin 044s set up? Feeding from surge tank or standard tank?

Nice result. What pump / fuel line size in your set up?

Are u going bigger/ extra pump? How did you figure out the pump is at its limit, did you try more boost and didnt get enough fuel?

Ive been thinking of trying a walbro, but not sure they flow much more than the 044 at high pressures. What power are you at with your set up and are you having fuel shortage issues with the pump/ fuel line size?

What pump and injectors you running, and what duty cycle the injectors at?

The post was made in 2014 and says he has been running one since 2004 so 10 years and still going.

i have run a Kenne Bell Boost A Pump since 2004. i find it an easy way to solve the fuel flow challenge of our thirsty motors. especially nice as it only juices the pump while in boost. given the rotary needs about 30% more air to make similar output to a piston motor, it also needs 30% more fuel. in addition, it needs to run on the rich side at higher power levels and then there's E85 which requires 30 to 40% more fuel. there are many ways to get it done and most work. you can do multiple pumps, or one monster pump or swap in what is currently the best 21st century single intank pump, the Walbro 9000262 (gas) or 9000267 (E85). if you are approaching 600 rw on E85 the Walbro may be marginal. at 13.5 V the pump makes 389 L/H at 16.0 it makes 568!!!!!!! more than enough for more than 600 on E85. at 16 V the pump is happy BTW. of course life can't be that simple. Kenne Bell just changed their BAP to a 17 V minimum... which is too much for the pump. /////////update: the 13.5 V base model is back by popular demand, see post 11 in this thread///////////////// other than an FYI on this i would like to ask the board, someone who knows electricity better than me... would it be feasible to run the BAP at 17 V and add some sort of resistor so as to end up at 16.0? if so please add the specifics. I coppied the above from rx7 forum. Intersting that the walbro 460 will flow 568 l/hr compared to 389 l/hr at 13.5volt

Turbo is gt35 with billett comp wheel, injectors are 750cc
