pfc, , cooler, bigger turbz, stock injectors, full exhaust

yea i know i was told even if you install it right i'd need a ( surge tank?) cause ill run out of petrol soon as it gets in the reserve tank.

ps= i like ur car man

thanks man

umm yer surge tank is always a good thing make sure that when it comes to fuel you dont go cheap always go for the big bangers to much fuel is better than no fuel at all

im running a 044 with a 1.5 lt surge tank and a standard lift pump and that suppourst 300 rwkw

also make sure you get some teflon braided hose if you buy any one those big pumps or else you will ahve trouble after trouble

[teazn_r33]

also look into a malpassi or some thing thay work a treat since you have stock inj

what does the regulator do? im confused...does it stop the stock injectors from maxing out? idk

[MANWHORE]

yep, you will if you install it like how everyone else does.

The bosch 040 doesn't have a pickup at the bottom. Have fun experiencing 3/4 tank syndrome, fuel surge and having a pump that will die in no time at all

there is a thing as a fuel pump thats too big

if it can pump too much and if your sitting in peak hour traffic idling lots the pump will keep going and pushing the fuel around the rail system and back to the tank, which will heat up the fuel, giving you a soggy and sluggish response when you open the throttle

[teazn_r33]

before i go tmy inj n ect i had standard ones and a 044 with a malpassi i was stupid n tryed to get as much power as possiable without any mods

anyways

the malpassi seem to over run the inj and pump a heap of fuel into the car but max sure they dont max out or else Bang..

but you should be right for say 240 rwkw max

everything is so complicated these days lol (only if you make it complicated)

what sort of pump is ideal for an r33 if not the 040?

thats very tru but i wat i was getting at was better to more than none at all cause you know wat a shortage of fuel does

[paulr33]

040 is fine for most mild gts's

gtr is another goody (but usually 2nd hand, older)

its only like really big pumps that have the "too big" issue

like maybe an 044 or twin 044's etc

[teazn_r33]

the best option if you are chasing just a lil more power with a good tune would b a walbro pump in tank direct replacment just make sure it aint a ebay on i got one of those a long tome ago lasted a 2 power runs

[R33GOD]

i am happy to make a comfortable 220rwk if im using the stock injectors and the fuel regulator. how much is the fuel reg ur talkin about and where does it go ect ect?

I got a walbro with 3/4 tank syndrom. gonna aget it down further tonight, anyone know how? is it just the way I placed it back into the tank that it didnt drop down low enuff or somehting?

[teazn_r33]

thast k i have a malpassi if you like but you would have to take it to a tuner if you have one cause they are fiddle lil pricks you should be able to make 220 with those mods already just get a sureg tank put your lift pump in

done
