Not really sure about being quiet as a mouse. I suppose everyone's idea of "quiet" may differ.

I installed my 044 in my last car in tank submerged and could not be heard at all. absolutely nothing , just surround it completely with fuel resistant rubber and submerged in the tank it's quiet as cannot be heard at all 0db Edited by mr skidz

Anyone got a flow chart for a nismo in tank.

I know it flows 4.6L a min at 42psi but I'm looking for more info

I've tried to find this info but it was impossible. I ran out of puff on E85 with mine at 6500rpm @ 380awkw. I would say that is about 300LPH at 65psi.

yeah 044 external is massive can be heard coming down the street no problems

One of the main issues with the bosch pumps making noise is their feed. When they are noisy it means they are starving and not sucking in fuel as fast as they would like to. They have a huge suction fitting for a good reason. Have a look, if you improve the feed of the pump (Larger hoses) you'll find that the noise will be significantly less.

Also, for you of you fellow propellor heads. I was reading this thread. It has almost EVERYTHING you need to know about fueling.

Here is something that I will be trying to do in the coming weeks:

at 12 V the 044 makes 12.9 liters per hour per amp

at 12 V the 040 makes 9.27 liters per hour per amp

note according to Bosch's own data (chart in post one)

the 044 makes 240 L/hour at 13 V!

8.3% increase in volts produces 20% more flow!

i spoke w the Jim at Kenne Bell friday....

according to their very well executed flow bench the Walbro E85 460LPH makes:

389 Liters per hour at 60 psi on 13.5 volts and...............

568 Liters per hour at 60psi on 16 volts.

Yep.... I will be using some step up transformers, or increasing my alternator voltage (Probably won't be able to do that though). even at 15 volts that pump would be more than enough for me on it's own. (450awkw @ 25psi)

@ Scotty, thoughts on the Fuelab Prodigy 42402?

http://fuelab.com/products/race/prodigy-fuel-pumps/item/42402_prodigy_fuel_pump_high_power_efi_in_line/

Have you seen the new Fuelab 52902 electronic fuel pressure regulators?

http://fuelab.com/products/performance/fuel-pressure-regulators/529-series-electronic-fuel-pressure-regulators/item/52902_electronic_fuel_pressure_regulator/

Im at fuel system stage, may need to call for advice man........

Yeh Peter, I have the 1500hp pump here I am still planning to fit to the Stagea. I saw their PWM output regs, they should work well together.

Much better idea than running the PWM output from the Haltech I think. What's better to control the pump speed than the reg?

Scotty swayed me to the 460l . happy camper so far.

They are hard to beat for the price, and for the road intank pumps are definitely the go, unless you have crazy saddle tanks and need a surge tank setup...

What are your thoughts on boot mounting that reg?

Im wondering if i could be bothered running a boost line to the boot, sounds like its more trouble than its worth to clear up some engine bay space.

Then again you need to run wires there anyway......maybe same same.....then again if the boost reference line gets pinched......

Ah, hang on, just realized, ive go the old fuel line feed or return that could be used to run vacuum/boost to the boot.

Need to think this over a bit.....

There may be a delay if the vac line is too long, not sure how it would go.

You could run that hard plastic push fitting airline hose under the car, it wouldn't crimp. It's used for airbag setups.

Hrmm seems bosch pumps and e85 arent a good mix. Ill be getting a tune in October hopefully so im interested to see how the 040 and external 044 go on e85.

I have -6n like from the surge tank going to the 044 should I change it out for a -8n line even though the rest is -6n? Or just stick it on the dyno and see if it comes back with any issus then address them later?

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
