Steve's mildly out-of-control build

So far so good, I'm working on the air cleaner now- trying to make it suck in cool/cold air rather than pre-heated radiator air. When I was on the dyno I dropped 5deg intake temp and picked up 2hp by blocking some of the hot air with a plastic folder, so this should work much better. Also looking into a bigger intercooler to try and drop the IAT's some more. Then comes the big fuel system this winter/fall!
Steve have you seen these new Aeromotive stealth 340 pumps?
With a boost a pump at 17.59 volts aeromotive flowed one at 433LPH with 60psi of pressure

lol, looks just like a walbro...
Anyways, I just bought some 272's for the car and am startig to once again get fuel on the mind. 1350's from FIC and some -8 fuel lines should help.
Main issue would be seen above- which fuel pump to use!! Bosch 044, Fuellab prodigy, A1000, duel densos (with tank modification, obviously) So many options!
I also need to get un-lazy and get to un-seizing the suspension adjustments so the springs and shocks can go in! And to top it all off I'm looking for better rims. O what fun and terror these cars bring to life

Steve My view regarding the A1000 is that it is loud, otherwise very happy.
BTW, is anyone interested in a mid winter Supra owners meet? My garage is heated and big enough. If we have the right timing, we could install the new hoist I am ordering. Typically having a few pairs of extra hands are nice as it will be very heavy.

Dan, I'd be down if I were a Minnesota guy bahahaha I've had no contact with any other Supra owners from the longest time :/
Getting a new fuel pump Steve? Your current one is a MKIV TT pump correct?
Dan - a meet would be fun stuff. No Supras all winter is getting to be quite annoying.

Yep, currently it has a mk4 TT denso pump in it right now, but I am unsure of how much more fuel it can provide. The pump dilemma is my main trouble area seeing a there are so many ways to go about it. I see three main options I can go with that are not super invasive/involved:
1- 2nd denso pump with more lines
2- A larger inline pump after the denso (o44, fuellab, a1000)
3- surge tank with a large pump feeding off of that. Just not sure quite yet.

why not duel walbros? easy to mount, easy to connect, flows enough fuel for plenty of hp, and they are pretty cheap at around $100 each
Those aeromotive stealth pumps are physically the same size as a walbro so fitting two in should be easy enough man. Otherwise if I were to do it over I would run a magnafuel.
Enraged- I've ridden in walbro pump'd vehicles and was not a fan of the noise output of the walbro, plus their flow drops off pretty badly once FP gets higher. I'm planning on running this turbo up to 30-35psi, so high pressure performance is a must.
IJ- didn't you run dual bosch 044/040's (german ones)? Dual densos is not out of the question, but I would be welding a new fuel tank panel into the tank if I went that route- an oval one from a camry/tundra, etc for them to fit easily.
Sean- I would like to hear one of those stealth pumps in person to make a call on them- their flow pattern suggests a similar gear-rotor design to the walbros. Makes me nervous about noise levels.

They are fairly new (released in dec 2010) so your best bet would be a phone call to aero.
I had 2 non German pumps that died the first time on boost.... :nono:toyotanos;1669821 said:
(started howling badly ALL the time)
Returned them and got 2x Tsunami's ran them for a bit till I got sick of the noise then got the 2x Densos.
Do you have a part number from one of the Denso's by chance? This E-85 requires a bit more fuel and I'm all for overkill on the fuel supply.
Sweet, thanks Ian. I'm fairly sure I have one of those in the tank right now, so it might be the cheapest way to go... but the tank would need a new access panel to fit them both. Hmmm
