I know I need new fittings and bibs and bobs, but I mainly want to know is everyone still using there standard fuel rail and fuel regulator? If not using the a billet fuel rail and turbo smart 1200? I currently have 430kw at 1460nm on e flex with id1000s. I beleive my single 044 is little small for my set up. I reakon I haven't run into any issues due to the fact I have 4.11 which has less load so less fuel. I'm currently organising taller gear ratios so I might run into issue with more load so more fuel or am I wrong?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what tuners in sydney do this. This will see if the system has enough capacity with the current setup. Ratter should be able to provide you more info on this.

Im keen to see what others say because its something I will prob do if im ever chasing more power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know Rapid is the only place to buy them already modified but I could be wrong. I'm also using it with a standard fuel rail and regulator and have no issues. Although this is an FG so I don't know what differences there may be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclewal Donating Members 583 Member For: 14y 3m 2d Posted 12/10/12 07:02 AM Share Posted 12/10/12 07:02 AM Question, why would you upgrade to the A1000 if the 044 can be measured to prove it does the job or not? surely the upgrade to the A1000 has got to be worth more than a dyno check with fuel return being measured? Just a thought thought and no disrespect intended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonjaz Donating Members 1,841 Member For: 16y 15d Gender: Male Location: CQ Posted 12/10/12 07:15 AM Share Posted 12/10/12 07:15 AM Yea I understand what your saying and your right he could do that...The way I looked at it was if he did get it checked payed for the dyno time and then found out no its not flowing enough hes up for a dyno bill and a new pump then possibly a retune/check anyway? But if he just upgraded the pump hes going to be alright and probably fine if he chases more power down the track, but I guess he might have to have a dyno check after changing pump anyway...Meh...

I agree with you, go the A1000 if you got spare coin then go to the dyno and ensure all is well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
