For how much bhp is good a standard Sierra Sapphire Cosworth fuel line? If this needs to be uprated than what size do I have to make? Also are the banjos from the pump to the fuel filter and from the fuel filter to the main line restrictive? The Sierra is 500bhp+ . Thanks for the help

Std is fine, but run -6 from the pump all the way to the fuel rail / reg

MalteseFalcon

Thanks 4 d help but what you mean by but run-6?

MalteseFalcon

hey pal we speak another type of language here and I never heared about this -6!!! Dont lough but here seems that no one knows about this -6 type! maybe they got another name fo it or something. So would you be so kind and explain to me in detail?

I know about thread sizes but we use a slight different pronaucation for them thats why I was confused about that but now I cleared everything!

So you think this is allright for 500bhp ehh! The thing about the banjos IM not sure couse i think they re a littlle bit restrictive.

DaveEscos

use proper FORGED hydraulic fittings for the fuel hose

std being 15mm into pump, and 8mm bein from pump to reg, and 8mm return.

i believe std is good for 550+ bhp.

MalteseFalcon

Well thanks mates, I can leave everything as it is!!!

Fiecos Dan

best way is flow check your system at 3 bar, and as if it can flow wot you need, it will be ok.
