thought id share my new surge tank with everyone, it houses a 044 inside it which will keep it quiet and take up less space. will be mounting it up soon!

will be using the standard 260RS fuel pump as lift pump & the 044 as the main pump. both will have the direct feed from the battery.

044 is a dinosaur pump, there are much better flowing intanks around now, and for less coin.

Ditch the stock pump, it is too old. A new (genuine) Walbro is under a hundred.

Seems the pump will take up most of the space - how much fuel will it hold?

I'm using the 044 cause I already had 2 sitting here, walbro's aeromotive's ect aren't the be all end all pumps. 044 is proven to work for what I need so why get a over kill pump? I stumbled across a comparison test done by a us tunning shop

http://realstreetperformance.com/store/pages/fuel-pump-comparison-test-5.html

They sent all the raved about pumps for independent testing and the results show that 044 isnt as bad as u may think

got a walbro intank pump custom surge and the old tested tried and proven 044 powers mine along fine on e85. just make sure you hard wire them with a trigger relay still so they get correct voltage for maximum flow

That's the plan mate, the 8g wire has already been run through the car to the back. Just have to connect it all up and fit the tank! Should all b sorted by sunday, how much power u makin on e85 on the single 044

Edited by GTR260

338rwkw on 17 psi bit more to come sorting out boost control see if I can get to hold 19 should easy see 350

Nice, is that with standard rail pressure? Or have u bumped it up a bit?

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
