I've been looking at putting the 1800hp fuel lab pump in mine so I don't have multiple pumps and then speed control it with the ecu so it's not pumping so much fuel around getting hot. Was going to run a single magnafuel 750 but not being able to speed control means I'll have to build a fuel cooler which is a pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im using a boost a spark to pump the volts up, off boost the speed control relay disconnects the control signal from the Reg and switches the control terminal for the pump to earth for minimum pump speed, once it comes onto boost the boost a spark pulps up to 18v and the pump gets full speed control. This is all geared around reducing return flow. With a big mechanical reg you could just use a Hobbs switch to control pump speed.

eff xr6t Member 569 Member For: 11y 2m 19d Posted 06/05/18 01:55 AM Share Posted 06/05/18 01:55 AM Yeh I can control it off the ecu with the fuel pressure sensor and based on engine load. What sort of cost is the boost a spark? Would like to do a speed control of it with a solid state so that I can control speed properly but don't know if they will like that. My mate has the 1800hp version and pushed that to 1200hp at the wheels on e85 and was still keeping up so they flow the numbers just don't know how it will go with methanol.The magnafuel was my first choice being 2500hp rated and even though they don't like people using them with methanol I've seen them used for years with meth and haven't failed yet. Around $700 they can be rebuilt easily but can't speed control so 20mins of street cruising and fuel heatsoaks badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also managed to get to sleep the last few nights without any form of sleeping tablet...I was actually getting pretty stressed about that for a while there.

Posted 23/05/18 06:23 AM Share Posted 23/05/18 06:23 AM Just had confirmation I am getting a 32GB RAM, 512GB SSD version of these as my desktop replacement: it's the 8th Gen Intel Core i7-8650U Processor (8M Cache, 1.9 GHz, 4.2 GHz max), vPro CPU version https://www3.lenovo.com/au/en/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpad-t-series/ThinkPad-T580/p/22TP2TT5800 I also get to roll out 120+ of these to staff, it's the 16GB, 25GB SSD version, which is a massive step up from the desktops we currently have. https://www3.lenovo.com/au/en/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpad-x/ThinkPad-X380-Yoga/p/22TP2TXX380 So hopefully lot's of overtime getting them ready and rolling them out to staff, which will come in handy with having to pay off the new mortgage I've got myself into 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
