Guest jjohart Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 I've probably posted on a similar thread, but now that the "Custom Tubes" installer is putting on my NPR I/C, Greddy Profec B, and blow off valve/pop off valve, I am wondering if I should have his outfit put on the Bosch fuel pump I bought...is it plug and play, or do I have to wait to have it put on along with a progressive fuel management unit (CarTec/Bell). The installers are good at the brawn end of putting this stuff in, but they make no claims to know how it works, so I don't want to drive it off their lot and have drivability issues before I can get it to a specialized "tuner" mechanic.

Clifton Posted December 2, 2003 Share Posted December 2, 2003 Might need different conectors for the wires, stock bracket might not work, If it's barbed than the hose will work. Will work fine with stock FPR it just pumps the fuel. It's just a fuel pump, you need some shop to do that too?

Guest jjohart Posted December 2, 2003 Share Posted December 2, 2003 Ok, so we don't all have hospitable weather in N.E, nor do we have aerial lifts in our breezeways near Scottsdale...some of us non-techie types actually have to have someone semi-pro, who may know what they're doing, mess with tiny things like fuel pumps and large, volatile containers and hoses, etc!!

yo2001 Posted December 13, 2003 Share Posted December 13, 2003 With good fuel pump I don't think you would need a FMU, specially on low boost and IC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Zcarsmakemyheadhurt Posted December 14, 2003 Share Posted December 14, 2003 Have them put on the pump, I mean come on. Their fabricating your intercooler and you trust them and a fuel pump is not a big deal at all. Sounds like your hesitant for some crazy reason about putting on a pump. Whats up! You need a pump, no doubt about it. We all need nice hi-pressure fuel pumps and not some crapy ass 20+ year old stock junk. As for the fuel regulation, buy a FMU that has a spacific rate. You dont have to tune as much and if your good it will be right on the dime. So whaterver post some pic's of your ride, and let us know how it runs.
