Aftermarket - Out of tank - Fuel Pump ?

[92TealSupra]

Alright guys. I have a fuel cell that is going into my car, and I will have a - out of tank - Fuel pump put in. I don't want something HUGE. I want something that will support stock and maybe up to 325 hp. Like I said I want something I can mess with a little, and I have no knowledge of fuel pumps, so if you have any sites or know of a good one let me know also.

These three wires were on the car and I have it confirmed that these go to the fuel system.

But what wires are which:

Thanks

check summit. A race car that we had (civic with a k24 vtec) had a fuel cell, and my boss got the fuel pump from summit. It sits on the outside, and it has some -an fittings on the cell, and on the pump.

Aeromotive Tsunami

Bit noisy but a nice compact pump.

Well is it to much for my car Im runnign stock then I will upgrade? and what psi can these pumps put out that won't hurt a stock fpr?

When you hook this up, you jsut put a feed line in the tank? or is there a certain item you buy, I am sorry I just never delt with external pums before.

 

[IJ.]

-6 in and -8 out from memory.

I run a pair of these.

With a drilled J Tube the stock FPR might handle it ok.

whats the difference between the tsunami and the a1000?

 

[IJ.]

Half the size.

 

[sneakypete]

i see.... how about flowrate and reliability for a moderate build (about 600-650hp)? would a tsunami supply enough fuel with the write plumbing?

Nope they're only good to 500 crank, this is why I run 2

Would this be fine for my stock supra and to make about 350 hp, would this support that?

Also the Max psi is 14 uhm don't I need like 20 or something I guess I don't understand what PSI my car needs?

Would I need a new FPR?

Also it's a 529 LPH pump so??? I did the conversion ..

 

[IJ.]

That's just a Holly Blue Carb pump so nope no use to you.

Well I want something similar to it and no more then 140.00 including shipping Im not looking for something great. remember i have a stock motor and stock turbo which I will be running a extra 3 psi on.

So please find some good chocies Iv been looking but I am picky

LOL...Cheap, Fast, Reliable...you get to pick two

Watch out for the Walbros on eBay...a lot are Chinese copies.

bosch 044 as that is the external version of the 040. good to 700 crank ponies as it is a high pressure pump. ie will not fall flat on face like a walbro.

 

[92TealSupra]

I know I can only Pick two. I will go with Cheap ( in price ) and reliable for now I always work in fast though too, so I will keep checking for pumps I want to order one tonight though.

 

[92TealSupra]

Okay I found this, this looks good, are there any others that would work good, Also one lines go to the tank and it just sits in there, or is there like a pickup bobber at the bottom?

And what wire do I wire to the pump I have those three wires one goes to the pump for power I think, one goes to the gauge, and the other I forgot.

 

[sneakypete]

which pump are you talking about?
picking a pump by its price is a big mistake my friend.... i would pick quality regardless of your current or future power goals.

I really just want reliable, it really does hurt when you're on a tight budget- and I know that you should never put money first when you want something to work correctly, I just need something to run the Supra stock, and then maybe later 350 hp~ I do not see myself running 350 hp~ for a long time though. I am just trying to get this car to run stock right now and that is a challenge in itself. Fixing everyone elses mistakes is never fun, and that is where I am. I don't even have a drive shaft .. because the one on there has a manual back end and a auto front..

I am sure they are, I am almost positive about that, but I know the front half is different.
