Surge Tank + Fuel Pump, When Do You Need Them And Why?

[rollex]

Any pictures of what the KPM product actually looks like? Curious how it differs from the stock swirl pot.

Pctured above is our Streetfighter 1000Hp Intank system utilising our previous 300lph Fuel pumps.

As pictured below we now have a new 300 Lph fuel pump that has been developed and rated on constant E85 usage for 10,000 hours.

Our previous pumps , were rated at 500 hrs on E85.

I'm happy to throw two of your new e85 pumps into my module, along with your 1500cc injectors and prove that it can make over 500rwkw?

Looks similar to what Nizpro developed in 2006. They used an In tank single 044 But they filled the inside of the tank with foam to baffle the fuel surge / slosh.

I still like the idea of a surge. Swirl pot may give 11-13 seconds but I also have the nearly 2 litres in the surge tank as well

Anyrate running a high boost car with under a 1/4 tank of fuel is stupid.

The swirl pot has 1.5 litres however it refills and stays full of cooler dense fuel at a rate that fills it quicker than can be used at the engineered power levels. When we use the empty fuel tank scenario this is to show the extreme cabability at a rated power level..

Anyone keen for a KPM 1000hp group buy with the newer 300lph E85 pumps?

I think the bottom line in this is KPM have designed, engineered, tested and back their product through the work they've done. If you feel you need to sleep easier at night sure buy the surge, but it's still not a silver bullet to some of the problems here

After going to the KPM evening at pitlane, I've budgeted for a intake setup from them

So the FG and the MKII BF have the same tank?
