i dident realise how expensive this would end up being but got all my bits now! just waiting for the -8 and -6 teflon hose to turn up. Had my tank modded for aero quips too also i have some 1.5mm stainless to make a pump/fitter cradle

no kidding my pump and bits from earls to have 2 filters in parallel cost far to much!

ajamesc

I did think about twin pumps but im never going to have over 650 so im sticking with one 044

Brendan

I only have one pump (Bosch 044) but the line from the tank goes into a "T" piece then 2 90 degree bend into the filters out the filters into 2 more 90 degree bends coming together into another "T" piece to feed the Bosch 044 pump. this way if one of the filters gets clogged with gunge in the fuel it will still run fine! and also flows very well as normally the resistance of the filter is halved. ( I am only running about 185bhp but thinking of N20 for short burst overtaking power! that should be enough in a fiesta!

ajamesc

o right cool thought you ment twin pumps mines going tank to pump to filter to center of the rail then will return iver end of the rail to the reg then back to tank

JamesH

You need more than 1 044 WAY before 650bhp mate.

ajamesc

Different people do different things mate but its good for the 500 it has now anyway! How's yours doing anyway? Looking at the pics I bet we will be reading about it in one of the mags when it hits the road! That thing is stunning

Age for 500 it's fine

Cheers fella. Little dis heartened ATM as everything is so much money for them! But it's my 21st sep 4th so if I get a few quid then I will be back on with it

ajamesc

Your right they do cost a lot lol mines off the road at the moment as im doing bits to it once the fuel is done ill sort my intercooler as I don't like the way it meets my new inlet but buying a new bike dident help lol. But never mind when its done it will be done I'm in no rush

Least you have other toys to play with

v man

I spent over 2.5 k on the fuel set up in the fez

ajamesc

2.5k lol my fuel system don't even cost that if I add the cost of the turbo, intercooler, inlet manifold and inlet cam and I have 500bhp lol

v man

Sorry I got that wrong it was more near 3k

Everything brought new

Pro alloy fuel cell
Tank mounting platform
External swirl pot
X2 044's
X2 filters
Pump and filter holder ( its an alloy jobbie that bolts up to the pumps and filter so it houses the pumps ) if you know what I mean
Earls aero quip fitting (and there are fuck loads of them
Bulk head fittings
Braided lines
Sitec fuel pressure regulator (with sight glass)
Siemens injectors

And I will be just over 500 bhp

ajamesc

wicked but expencive

OMG that kit list put a grin on my face but the price made my eyes water!

Same setup as mine but ime running a aeromotive a1000 pump instead of a 044. Have you got any photos of your car? Is it the red one with all the carbon bits that was on performance trims stand at fiesta in the park the other year?

v man

That's the one

It's had a fair bit more put into the car since then though

And I have 2 044's right behind my head

Hows the fitting going mate?

ajamesc

Havent even started yet lol i have all the bits but need the 2 poster at work for 2 days to give my self enough time! im hopeing to do it next week or the week after. The only thing that will take a bit of time is securing the fuel pipes to the under side of the car ive got -6 and -8 alloy clamps from torques but will need to weld m6 studs along the underside of the car for them to bolt on to so no great drama

virgill1

This must be expensive! so expensive!!!

Anyway, it is very nice stuff, and I hope all the best for you in your mission

ajamesc

got round to fitting my fuel system bits! turned out ok but the reg is a bit of an odd one so not sore on where i put it but its done now!
