does anyone have instructions on installing the 044 into the stock fuel tank

just interested as ill be doing one soon. do you still use the fuel pickup as id imagine they dont have one due to being designed as an external

here is a link to a DIY bosch 984 which flows more than an 040 and less than an 044. Bosch 984 DIY

the 044 needs a few minor additional parts from those listed but more or less the same.

BTW it is an external pump but they mount in tank no worries same as a 984 (or any other bosch pump afaik).

could be some heat issues though there isn't really much you can do about it really, mine is run off a surge tank so the area is pretty large.

O44 must have a one way valve installed on its outlet, they come with a banjo style one from bosch but no one uses it... this stops the fuel making its way back though the pump..

that guide is an absolute treat so top work for that

is the quality of the fuel supply affected by the lack of a sock filter at all? and what is this one way valve i will need to get (does anyone have a link)

cheers

i got my one way valve from Motorsport connections in Seven Hills NSW ..

sock is to keep crap out of the pump which can foul the pump itself causing it to burn itself out.

one way valve is to keep the lines and rail pressurized, only required if you want to run the pipe straight out of the pump and not use the banjo fitting supplied.

my one way valve came with a -8 fitting to use the push lock hose i ran off the pump and surge tank setup...

here is a pic of how it is setup til i weld up a new box for the system to cut out the fumes and noise..

    • If you are genuinely considering trying to get this engineered, I would strongly advise finding the engineer that is happy to sign that off first before you put the hole in your car.  I've seen cars get defected for this and not be able to be put back on the road as no engineer they spoke to was happy to sign if off.  
    • Apologies, while id like to put the MAF as close to the TB and relocate the recirc, this may be too much work. Will most likely end up just putting it on the original AFM spot ( onto/next to the airbox ).  Was going through nistune, found a pretty nifty doc on this. Nistune MAF Notes. Also, i was looking through the bay, and there seems to be a tube/line connected from the A/C to the intercooler piping ( Between the smic and the recirc), what does this do as the crossover fmic piping doesnt have any connection? plumbing? not sure what you call it but the nipple thing ahah.  Also, been reading up more about crossover fmic in regards to the legality of having the hole drilled for the piping, this would most likely need to be engineered right?
    • My advice is if you need a big build done do it in Japan. The yen rate is so favorable and there are shops that can be genuinely trusted and not micromanaged/carefully monitored every step of the way. Garage Yoshida is obviously my preferred option but they're so busy these days and all interaction with new customers has to be mediated through BBL/Toprank now. 
    • I haven't....but a poorly made one would terrify me. Surely a good second hand one is the go, as they don't work hard and no-one wants to keep one after they are finished with it A big consideration would be the weight of the shell you are putting on it....is it a fully dressed chassis or just the body
