Hey Boys,

Just a quick question, I just bought the process west fuel pump/ surge tank.

Do I have to do the intank pump as well, or will this setup be fine? I'm only chasing about 350rwkw, so just wondering if the stock fuel pump, + the process west one will be ok.

Thanks for your help lads.

I did the install my self... hmm that does sound a bit expensive installed.. that including the surge n pump? if so. doubt theres $500 to install. I did it in 2 hours on a car jack. and I still have standard intank pump

Im sure when he quoted me after my tune that he ment the sure and the pump.

Might see if I can get another quote somewhere else.

Any good mechanic should be able to install this im guessing without having to worry about a good job done ?

Thanks

Hey Steve mate, I think that does sound a bit expensive.

I bought the surgetank and the pump for about 900 I think, I also bought the wiring harness, which was about 150. so $1050 for the gear.

With the wiring harness the install should be fairly quick and easy, it shouldn't cost 500 for them to install it. I'm going to get my tuner to install it for me just so I know it's done right. I think kev from process west said it should only take an hour or 2 for a professional to install it, so 500 bucks worth of labour sounds dodgy.

Give him a call if you got any questions, his number is on the website, or look in the advertisers section, and maybe send him a private message.

I got the 044 and plazmaman surge tank installed for 1299. If your doing it urself make sure you hook it up to the factory fuel cut off thingo just in case the worst should happen.

Thanks Miles.

I did ring Kevin today and asked him for a price. He said the surgetank and the pump was 990 and 150 for the wiring stuff.

I also asked him about my tuner wanting to put the car back on the dyno for a check up after-woods to make sure that it doesnt (spike ?) or something after the install, Kevin suggested that it would be wise to do that as it can happen.

My tuner (Tunehouse) is not cheap and from what I have seen so far with what he has done and quality of work, I guess its not too bad.

I think ?

I guess its much and much when you consider that they will also put mine on the dyno.

So not bad I guess for what im getting.

Paulie2256, did you by any chance get yours on the dyno after the install or didnt worry too much about it as Kevin (process west) said it would be advisable as did my tuner?

Thanks for the replies guys...
