how much power will standard sti fuel pump put out?

[whatchain]

im trying to reconnect the wires together but forgot which goes with which. there are 4 wires, 2 black, 1 red and 1 blue, the black and blue are both connected to a small black box thing in the middle of the bracket and the red and black goes to the top where the connector is plugged into. also the red and blue wires are both wrapped around in that plastic cover. can someone tell me which wires goes to the pump\'s + and - terminal??

u dont really need the black box (its a small capacitor)

anyway, the red is red on the walbro and the blacl to black on walbro

done

so u saying i can take the black box out which has the black and blue wire. and wire the red to the positive and black to negative?

yep

exactly

done lots of older phase 1 setup like that

makes it neater and easier to setup as well

but yea essentially just use the 2..

also, since u running more power, u should also look at upgrading the pump feed wired

a very wise move if u do

good work on the fuel pump buddy

front pipe? piece of piss

1) downpipe off

2) turbo off

3) front pipe off

just use HEAPS of that rust penetrating lubricant stuff so you dont round the rusty exhaust bolts

you will be fine

P.S replace ALL gaskets you unseal otherwise it may mean exhaust leaks and nobody likes doing shit twice. am i right or am i right!! haha

sorry i mean down pipe, not front pipe..

If I remember right this can be a gigantic bastard unless you have a 14mm offset ring spanner, preferably a really expensive Snap-on ratchet one.

ive never had issues in my rs taking the up pipe off. dont need an offset ring spanner. i just use a 14mm with the longer extension and making sure that the extension and socket is in line with the nut so i dont round it.

then it just cracks open

soo. after changing the fuel pump, i notice that when the car had about 1/4 a tank left, i get fuel surge when i try to go around corner while going at a reasonably quick speed?? i was told not to use the walbo fuel sock as i could get problems with fuel surge.. but when i took the pump out, i used the the standard sock and im still getting surge at 1/4 tank?? does anyone know why this is happening??

Just fuel sloshing in the tank , its a wide tank so naturally gonna happen. Surge tank and external pump FTW.

How did u go on the dyno ?

got my car back from spec performance today after getting fuel controller installed and tuned. made 213kw atw. jon said he could hear slight detonation. so lowered the boost a bit. it now makes the 189.7kw on 14.5psi. (before was 182kw) will be looking to get injectors sonic cleaned and re-tuned, then will be able to bump back up to 17psi again and get some good results.

Unless I missed another Dyno run.
