Vacuum???

In Pretoria there is 2 dynas I would suggest, smart racing and Maus performance, Maus would be best for a standard setup....for upgrades I would suggest smart racing, both is good I just prefer smart racing.

Walbro fuel pump for around R600 +-.
If you want a small ECU upgrade.....perfect power or unichip....unichip can be supplied by both mentioned on top, I am not sure if smart racing would be able to help with perfect power but I am sure maus can not, they only work with unichip as far as I know.

Good to hear you got the boost down, same problem as before?

Thanks Draco
Can you give me the addresses of these dyno guys? Have you had a chance to check out the vacuum lines for me?

Smart racing is on the danville tunnel road, the one that leads to the mobopane highway, don't know the name, as you enter claremont there is a shell garage on your left....they are right next to the garage.
Tel:012 3773430

Maus....they are in Rosslyn, best you call them for the adress. Tel:012 5424990.

Sorry I haven't checked, hospital issues, as soon as i remember i will check....hopefully today...

Thanx ill give them a shout.

Where do i get a "Walbro fuel pump"?

Thanks VC!

I have checked my layout....I have a jap spec engine, this means i have secondary butterflies, my setup is different than yours if you have the sa engine. I have disconnected the valve totally, I just use the pipe from the head to the FPR, if you deside to do this you need to block off the small black pipe that pushes into the air intake pipe of the turbo between the air filter and turbo that leads to the valve and also the small hole in the large air intake pipe.

If you don't want to follow this route, I suggest asking someone with a sa spec engine to check the pipe lay out.

Hope you get orginised....

PS. turbo & NOS can help with pumps at the same place as smart racing and also volkspares should be able to help with a pump aswell.....

So what you're saing is that i should connect the vacuum at the back of the intake manifold direct onto the FPR and blank the rest of? Wont there be to much pressure on the FRP under boost then? Im not trying to be full of kak yust would like to now.
Thanks

Are you fellas talking about this?

just connect from the plenum straight to the FPR, it works fine like that. Its just a hot start solinoid. Just remember to block off the vac pipe that runs to the Turbo intake pipe as it will suck in un-metered air through there otherwise

Thanx Daniel, ill try that tonight. Im yust wondering how much boost pressure the FPR can handle before i tear the diafram?

Yes that was what I was saying, the plenum(intake man) goes straight to the FPR, that is how mine is connected now...., remember as your boost increase petrol preasure and petrol needs to increase aswell...

Danny while you busy with all the cute pics, be so cute 🙄 as to show us a pic of how the connection at the pressure solonoid valve looks like....

Ive connected the intake straight to the FPR with only my boost gauge in between. Its better but still a bit of stuttering atleast its drivable. Im boosting 0.6bar now.

Ok....0.6 is still standerd so you should be fine, if you want to increase the fuel pressure on the standard FPR....let me know and I will tell you how.

Ive got a idea of how to do the increase but i would rather let it be done whiles the car is connected to the right meters and on a dyno. I would like to meet up with you and maybe have a peek at your settup if posible.

Ok...if you want to set it on the dyna you need a after market pump and FPR....they can increase the FP with a chip....but only as far as the fuel pump allows..

We can meet up....I stay in rietfontein....let me know then we can orginise.

Thats there by wonderboom south that area?
