Thx for the explanation. I de-pinned the fuel relay wire from the front junction branch that runs to the rear of the car by, then extended the wire to the back. I then spliced a T into that wire ran for my 2ea signal wires for the pump. There where multiple wires of the same color in the rear branch so it was just easier to run a wire up from the ECU.

I'm getting ready to tackle some fueling mods. I just purchased the Frenchy's Twin Pump In-Tank Fuel System Kit. I also bought a Fuel pump relay module to power the pumps. ECU is an Elite 2500. The fuel pump relay wire is pinned off a DPO slot. My question is: When picking up the signal wire (teal wire w/ gray) is it better to pick it up before the OEM relay and FPCM or will picking up next to the hat cover fine? I'm mounting the Relay module on the hat cover and since that wire will be close I'd rather pick it up there.

Have you looked in the oil filler or taken a cover off with the car running? Try to assess the pil pressure and pinpoint the sound better. -
Rt lol. its not a total waste of money. I mean its nice. welds are great and I like how they do the shroud. considering that I told Pete what I wanted in Sept 22 then getting ghosted and having them rush to get it done; i can see how it got missed. In hindsight I shouldve just layed out everything with the fab guy. Its all good though. I have a friend that can weld some Alu. I'll get it right once I get my vented hood in to ensure the filler fitment is gtg. I could go breather tank but I hate all the extra hoses.

Well after the excitement and stress relief of getting the rad wore off, I noticed they didn't weld on a filler neck like I asked lol WTF. I asked for one in the OEM location but since they use the PWR 2-pass core, the tanks are on the side. I would like to think they should've known that I still required one. Oh well, I get that handled eventually.

So, remember when I assumed the radiator was gonna ship out? turns out it didn't. When I got told it was packed and ready, I didn't hear back or receive any tracking. I gave it a week and then asked what the holdup was. I was informed that they wanted to re-pack to add more bubble-wrap. At this point they were waiting on the packing material. I then waited 2 weeks before asking was it ready to ship out. Once I did ask, I was assured it was ready and will ship out that day. it's been a week since then and no tracking. I typically get an email from UPS/DHL/FedEx accounts when something ships to my address. I've also checked my USPS account to see if they may have used AU Post to ship and so far, nothing. I'm super frustrated at this point. Just feels like they took my $2k usd.

Yeah I'm aware. I've bought my fair share of things from Aus to know shipments take a bit. I like to think that Hypertune uses a distributor who has items readily available locally. Maybe not. It was just convenient that when I asked about it then it was getting packed to ship. Makes be think that I was forgotten about. Hats off to the fab guy. He has been stand up throughout

Just an update: So Im still waiting on the radiator since talking to the Owner of Hypertune on 11 Apr. But it looks to be shipping today or tomorrow (fingers crossed) Besides waiting (9 months) on this thing it, took me until may to find out the fan I chose would possible not fit. I was gonna go with a brushless but with the recessed mounting it wouldn't work (initially I sent them dimensions/schematic to verify fitment. I was assured it'll get handled). So once the radiator was done and pressure tested I had to wait on a new fan. I go the news of the fact that it was all done and pending the fan on 12 May. I imagined that it wouldnt take more than a week for them to get a fan from a distributor and shipped out. I ended up messaging the fab guy i've been in contact with today and he let me know that they are now packing it up for shipment. That tells me that the fan was sitting and my order was forgotten about again. hopefully within the next couple of days I will be finished with this transaction.

I've read that restricting the water passages and helps the pressure to prevent steam pockets. I've also read that higher flow helps pull heat from the metal. The higher flow helps the heat dissipates from the coolant in the radiator faster. What you were stating about slowing that coolant down to stay in the radiator seems to have changed. I think it's due to newer R/D, tech and CAD Sims etc. They see that is more beneficial to speed the fluid up in the system. Idk what's right but it's all something to think about and find that good median. I'm sure the results vary on motor design.

To me if it's an improvement then it doesn't hurt to to have.

Here you go. The impeller takes up the whole anti-cavitation plate. Should work well

Pump just arrived. JPC just changes out the impeller. The core is a GMB pump
