JaSSon Posted April 24, 2004 Report Share Posted April 24, 2004 Alright, I have a problem. There is no decent aftermarket fuel pump for my car. Walbaro makes one, but from what I hear it's complete crap and will burn out in a matter of months. -not an option. I COULD go with an '03 cobra pump, but that requires an '03 tank and that is $$$. My solution: increase the voltage to the pump. Something along the lines of a Kenny Bell Boost-a-pump, but cheap. I need to up it from ~14V to 18-20V, nothing drastic, just a little extra insurance. I'm assuming I would need some sort of coil, and I dunno what else. I think this should be a fairly simple little box. I have some EE education, but honestly, most of it has seeped out of my head. I would like this to be something that is usually bypassed, then when i need it, flip a switch and increase voltage to the pump. Anyone up to the challenge?

Mensan Posted April 25, 2004 Report Share Posted April 25, 2004 Get an aftermarket fuel system if you plan on running any serious amount of power. Tank, lines, pump, and rails. Make it a return style as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
