Dont waste your time. Get a p/w surge tank setup instead. Once you increase power you will need a surge tank anyway.

I had a BA and a BF ute , and as soon as I started mods I had bad fuel surge.

dont waste the $$$$

Utes just dont get the surge like the sedans.

I have a walboro pump in my tank and run 370rwkw+ and drive it hard down until the fuel light comes on with no surge.

surge tank will only be required possibly 400rwkw+.

jasol - Cant remeber mate sorry.

JA2473 - that's strange mate. Is that with standard pump or aftermarket? I run my tank right down all the time, pull 11.2 at the drags and run track days with no issues what so ever.

Maybe you guys arn't cornering hard enough :cry:

I have a standard fuel system in my BF MkII ute and give it sh*t (@ only 265rw/kW) and notice the lack of fuel in every hard corner, can't wait to get a Process West surge set-up or something similar, just need the dosh.

When I had a AFR gauge I did notice it drop from rich back a bit towards Stoich on full accelaration around hard corners (when on full throttle it should stay at rich), it was never anything to worry about as I never had ping from it just power loss...

Also maybe its how some people drive, I brake hard and power through corners (noticing the lack of fuel on corner exit).

I have run at willowbank and didn't experience any fuel problems in straight line dragging.

:crybaby:
