Question on Fuelling


Vaughany

Recommended Posts

I am currently undergoing a Single Turbo Conversion, my fuelling mods are as follows

 

* Walbro 341 Fuel Pump

* Aeromotive FPR

* PE 650cc Injectors for J-Spec Fuel Rail

 

I will be using stock fuel lines etc and have not had the 12v fuel mod done yet. My turbo will be the PHR Stage 1 Kit. I would be grateful if someone could answer the following.

 

Would it be advised to do the following

 

* Uprate Fuel Lines

* Run Twin Walbro Fuel Pumps

* Run the 12v Mod

 

I did not budget for the above and even though I am sure these wont break the bank but you can imagine, alot of little bits soon add up to alot of money. With this turbo (simular to the BL61 Kit I suppose) are these mods essential, or are they something that can wait .

 

Cheers

Food Freak, Yes mate, I have the Emanage. This topic raised my concerns as all the Americans are running dual pumps and I was not sure what the members on here with singles were running.

 

When you had your car mapped, was there any fuelling problems and what boost were you running.

I'm running 1.4 bar at the moment, & ive got the Map ecu.

I did try the S-afc but it could'nt take out enough fuel.

have'nt fully mapped yet but getting close, just need to trim out a little at the top end.

Just bear in mind, mine's a VVTi....makes a difference

John

 

BTW......it's much, much better than the stock twins

should be alright, depends what boost you're wanting to run.

 

when logging just keep an extra eye out for fuel pressure dropping (or staying the same) while boost rises. you obviously need a pressure sensor in the fuel line (pre FPR) to do this

Thanks everyone, thats a bit of money saved there then. Now I need to decide what to spend this on. I knopw I should start another post but what is everyones opinion on a Oil Catch Can, are they required for a single?

 

Cheers again for the info

I have twin walbro pumps but, as dude said to me, it was more for insurance just in case rather than necessity. BTW, I run a T67 with 720cc injectors so I think you will be fine with the one pump.
You will only be fine with one pump up to the boost level that produces about 600rwhp (6spd). After that, you will begin to run lean as you max out the total volume that one pump can supply. Since a 2jz-gte with a T67 at 30psi and HKS 264 cams (for example) has proven that it can produce over 725rwhp, you may need to consider running dual pumps.

Phil what on earth are you doing here ;)

:tumble: um...I guess my addiction to Supra-related information drives me to subscribing to forums beyond 'the colonies' ;)

 

A man of your calibre is always welcome this side :tongue: :respekt:

Yum, 30psi... 2 bar of boost, that's crazy :) I think my 720's would run out of duty before the pump runs out of puff.

The 720s would be fine for at least 700rwhp (although I agree it'd be about 90% duty cycle at that point). This is well over the point that one fuel pump can flow. Again, it all depends how much boost you plan to run.

 

Also note that 720cc injectors are commonly supplied in 'full' fuel system upgrades that include a extra lines and a 2nd fuel pump. Imo, running 720s with only one fuel pump is an unusual setup.

and what voltage to the pump ;) Another story

 

My orginal comment about a T67 on a single pump was supposed to be in the context of street driving. My bad:thumbs:

Aye, well I went for the full fuel system, HKS rail, twin entry -6 lines coming from a -8 main fuel line which was fed by a pair of Walbros, Aeromotive FPR etc, but I had a bizarre misfire problem and knocking the pump system down to just one pump was part of the troubleshooting, especially as by this point I knew one pump would be fine. Hence the unusual setup ;) As I'm running a max of 1.4bar on pump fuel that's fine for me for now, but I have the components and the experience to up it to twin pump again if I need to - not likely, as I'm a coward and I like my stock bottom end too much :D

 

Currently I'm seeing 75% duty at 6500rpm, 1.2bar, 11.7:1 afrs. Should be good for 24psi of boost at 90% duty, dunno if that will quite equate to 700rwhp as I've got about 500 at the moment! But that's just theoretical calcs, not experience...

 

As Terry says, for street one pump is fine, this setup is fast enough for me on the road!

...just another couple of data points that might be relevant. A friend of mine made 678rwhp with a T04R (67mm) turbo, oem cams and 720cc injectors a few years back. I don't know what his duty cycle was at the time, but he was running about 28psi of boost with a VPC, an SFC fuel controller, and a g-Force upgraded oem ecu.

Noel Samuels also made 729rwhp with a T04R, but he had HKS 264 cams. I don't know what size injectors he used for that run.

More T04R (67mm) and PTE67dyno results at this link.

Its interesting to note that had a Brit posted those BHP figures on the BBS, he would have been ridiculed and yet coming from an American, we accept this as being OK. Please dont think that is meant as a slight to pwpanas but just an observation.

Stop tempting me to run more boost ;) I've got the cams too argh make him stop...

Thanks everyone

 

Pwpanas, I will be running the PHR Stage 1 and will hopefully be running about 550bhp at the flywheel. My setup will be 650cc injectors, Aeromotive FPR and a walbro fuel pump. In your opinion should this be able to supply enough fuel for the planned power. I am only planning to run as a street car and dont want to have run dual pumps etc unless I really have to.

 

Cheers

Fwiw, I am certain (assuming proper installation, defect-free components, etc.) that your planned fuel system will deliver enough fuel for your planned horsepower level. In fact, it would be fine for considerably more than that: up to 550bhp at the wheels. Somewhere between 550 and 600rwhp your fuel pump would become the limiting factor.

 

P.S. Love your sig. :woot:
