Hi all,

Looking into fuel regs now and i need to make a decision what one i need/should get.

Just purchased a fuel pump/surge tank setup and it's been setup as:

Gtr pump as lift pump

2xbosch 979's externally

2l surge tank

After a decent reg that will be able to do the job of this pump setup. I think i've narrowered it down to 3, so can i get some suggestions as to which one would suit me best, and why. Also if you have any suggestions i'm all ears!

Am looking at buying one of these at the moment as well. IMO the pro series one is a bit over the top for my application anyway. The A1000 and A1000-6 will both happily handle 1000hp which is more than I will ever want for a track car...not really a drag kinda person. I'm going for the A1000 because you can get a bit more flow through it later if required and you can put in adapters to fit to the size of the lines you are using now -6 to -10 etc. And it looks prettier too :) Another cheaper option also is the compact one, p/n is 13105 will not handle as much as the A1000 (even though says up to 1000hp) I have been told there happy to about 800hp.

hmm bit cheaper buying from the states though, the australian aeromotive importer is just up the road from me and I have been quoted 315 for an A1000. Might be able to get them a bit cheaper if we are buying a couple.....

what goes in must go out.

I didn't think this was the case.....Majority of set-ups I have seen have a smaller return line than pressure line......ie. -8 pressure split into x2 -6 into rail and single -6 return line......

cool. just make sure you change your return line to 3/8 pipe. what goes in must go out.

cheers dave

my understanding is:

-8 from pumps under the car splitting into 2x-6 into fuel rail

-8? from fuel rail into reg

-10 from reg back under car

is that correct?

still not sure which reg i need lol

  • 2 weeks later...

sooo can anyone tell me which one would suit me best?

picked my fuel pump/surge tank setup on the weekend (cheers vijay) and ordered my tomei fuel rail on thursday, so all that's left now is to decide on a fuel reg

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
