My standard pump wasnt happy above ~210kw at all 4 wheels. Most people say you can get close too 300kw at the wheels before needing to replace it.

My new fuel system comprises of factory pump in tank, 2L surge tank and Bosch 044 pump. Works a treat.

The 044 isnt that noisy... it makes a small audible buzzing noise at idle, cant hear it any other times.

And the surge tank is to prevent fuel surges going around a track etc :)

Also raises my bling bling wank factor when I pop the boot with all the pretty braided hoses and earls/speedflow fittings :cheers:

ahaha ok ok cool cool

so 044 pump will do just fine

I've just had to replace my stocker pump. Managed to make 410hp at all four which I thought was awesome for a stocker. I thought it was actually aftermarket until I pulled the bastard out. :)

I've now got a drop in SARD pump. Not noisy enough for me to complain put it that way.

Hey, ive gotta upgrade my pump and i was hoping to keep an in tank set up. Anyone know of an in tank pump that will support 350rwkw, or will i have to go the 044 with a surge tank. If ive gotta go the external 044, will a Walbro 500hp pump be ok for a lift pump? Ive also got the standard r32 gtst pump that i could as the lift pump use too.

This is what i run, walbro in the fuel tank to prime serge tank and the 044 to pump upto the injector's, Works fine.

Serge tank is to also stop the 044 from running dry :)

    • It will sound tragic and you wished you didn't have 1x exhaust per turbo. There's a reason why most S55 owners change to a single mid pipe.
    • Echo the comments about the well preserved condition it's in. It has the aero bumper too for extra points. Nice car, and please keep it like that! 🙂
    • 1. There are no real performance benefits. It sounds different, and as the pipes are not as large diameter you can claw back some undercar clearance or run lower (if that's your thing). 2. Twin pipes, offering exactly the same cross sectional area as a single pipe** will have higher pressure drop - so will not flow as well. That's because there is more surface area of wall per cross sectional pipe area, hence more frictional losses. ** But of course, it is almost impossible to get 2 pipes that are exactly the same XS area as a given typical single pipe. eg, 2x2" is not the same as 1x 3", although it is close. If the 2x pipes add up to less XS area than the single - it will just be flat out worse. If the 2x pipes add up to a bit more than the single, then it might come out as a wash. If the 2x pipes are substantially more XS area than the single, then it will probably flow a little better. 3. No. Why would there be? What have cats got to do with boost creep?*** ***But for f**ks' sake, please run a cat. 4. If you want.
    • UPDATE: was able to have the bracket repaired and base repaired, seat is like new now ;)
    • I was going to say it looks right out of Gran Turismo photoshoot when you just buy the car. (in a good way)
