Even at really low figures I.e. 20km DTE?Or is it still advised not to 'trash' it with less than 1/4 tank?Thanks!Yes 100%.All Streetfighter systems have been on 100s cars now for over 3 years.We have had not 1 surge issue ever reported back to us.The reason for this is that they a a properly engineered product that has been fully desihned and therafter tested for , flow volume, anti surge and correct system pressures.Unlike a surge tank it is a complex design that allows perfect manners.Not recommended however on testing, we raced a car around Malalla race track with less than 5 litres in the tank . No surge and the fuel pressure remained perfect until we ran out of fuel on the third lap. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90399-fuel-pump-upgrade/page/2/#findComment-1541188 Share on other sites More sharing options...

boost69 Donating Members 737 Member For: 19y 11m 11d Posted 27/04/15 06:04 AM Share Posted 27/04/15 06:04 AM Assuming you just change the in tank pump to a much higher flowing one, will you need a retune?...(assuming you're keeping the stock regulator)Just want to know if I should be upgrading the pump at the same time as the injectors.

The kpm one comes with a reg so would that make a difference as well? 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90399-fuel-pump-upgrade/page/2/#findComment-1543864 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re what happens in the top end from a tune that's trying to work around falling fuel pressure, it might run a tad rich, but it should be fine. This is all assuming that the reg is swaped to match the pump flow 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90399-fuel-pump-upgrade/page/2/#findComment-1543870 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_4.0 Member 1,096 Member For: 14y 3m 10d Posted 13/05/15 02:33 AM Share Posted 13/05/15 02:33 AM if fuel pressure remains the same and your car wasn't previously tuned trying to band aid a poor fuel system, then this system shouldn't need a retune. However, id recommend getting it on a dyno just incase. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90399-fuel-pump-upgrade/page/2/#findComment-1544212 Share on other sites More sharing options...
