Will a bbk 255lph fuel pump work?

[cody0170]

A 255 comes with the procharger kit. Along with the injectors. And drive very careful to tuners. DO NOT go into boost. Are you gonna install it yourself?

i'm sure you will get an answer but i hope its an answer you will like, Also, i read that you have done the pi swap... you do know that your compression is 10.5:1 and that is pushing it for a blower. your getting it trailered to a dyno and getting it tuned before your starting it up right??? b/c i wouldn't even bump it over with that much compression and boost...

im thinking of doing a pi swap... i didnt know you could get it tuned and be ok with out getting dished pistons. what will the tuner be able to do

 

[scarface]

tuner can add fuel, and adjust timing to allow for the higher compression.

so that being said i could use pi heads and still supercharge it and be safe. how much boost could i run with a stock bottom

 

[scarface]

I wouldnt do more than 6-8 myself.

i've read that with the 10.5 : 1 CR the boost is snappier on a centri. the lsx motors have higher compression too so yea, its doable but i wouldn't get to much boost... like scar said 8 max

 

[voidfinger]

the avitator is around 170, the svt focus is around 80. Then there is the GT supercar pumps....

So i should jump on that 170 frpp pump that 8psi is selling then huh.

 

[scarface]

I would.

 

[cody0170]

o wow 6-8 psi. doesnt really seem like the price is worth it for a blower.

 

[voidfinger]

trust me, 8 psi on a 10.5:1 cr motor will feel like it

 

[cody0170]

what will my hp be looking like with stock pi swap and 6 psi

 

[scarface]

o wow 6-8 psi. doesnt really seem like the price is worth it for a blower.

thats like 13 psi on a NPi

 

[scarface]

what will my hp be looking like with stock pi swap and 6 psi

350+ would be my guess.

Did you buy the kit or a used s/c? If your doing the install I will give you one very good piece of advise. Be absolutly sure you install it as a pull thru MAF. Not a blow thru. If you install the MAF after the s/c your tuner will run away, or even worse you will never get a good tune. Believe me on this one. The very best install is to use a Powerpipe and install the MAF right behind the K&N filter in your wheelwell.

see it seems more practical to find a cobra motor and start there with 300-390 hp factory

along with the 10k price tag ???

 

[ripper]

Few more bucks and get the real thing :dunno:.

 

[chris98gt]

yes it was used about 4k miles on it, I had planned on setting it up like the manual said to. I also wasn't plannin on just fireing it up and raising hell. I only live 20minutes from mph so yea it's no big deal to wait to get it tuned.

 

[scarface]

good place to tune!
