Project 10AE: fuel delivery questions
Some of you may have already figured out that I'm working on my project 10AE. My goal is 350-400 HP with a street port, T04,and Haltech. I've got a good idea about what I'm doing but would really apreciate some advice and opinions from more experianced rotorites.
I need a fuel system to suport 350-400 hp. What all do I need?
fuel pump? Walbro.
Injectors? what would be my optimal set up? Fuel rail? FPR?
What else?
What are the advantiges of using a third gen intake?
Thanks,
Mike

Re: 10th AE Project...
I also have a 10th AE project...
Same setup....
Upgrade:
1. Fuel pump
A. External- (requires sump in bottom of tank)
(requires steel braided lines, adjustable regulator
and pump)
Benefits: able to run race fuel and to run boost over
20 psi!!
B. Stock Location- Walbro
2. Injectors
Pri- 550
Sec- 1600 (requires moded fuel rail)
The T04 series have a tendency to run lean at
high boost....
3. Haltech or Wolf....

except my wife has put an end to my spending because she wants a new house .
I guess I will see what you guys do and learn from your mistakes.
So far I have new paint(new outer window seals, roll cage, all new brakes(booster, master cyl., rebuilt calipers and powder coated red, S.S. brake lines, power slot rotors, wheel bearings, Kirkey alum seat and brackets, full set of gauges, Totiko(spelling) struts, ground control springs 500ft/450rr
thats about all for now

Thanks. thats the kind of info I'm looking for. I was thinking an external pump set up. Wich pump are the external guys running?
Wich FPR is good for this set up?
Is there anybody that builds the rail I need or would I have to have it made?

I'm asking all of the questions now so hopefully I won't make any mistakes. . When I'm finished with mine I'm going to have it painted back to original color but I'm thinking about putting a blue pearl in it.
Thanks again,
Mike

Buy this:
2 160 lb/hr injectors (1680cc) from www.precisionte.com
1 SX 1:1 fuel pressure regulator
1 small VDO FPR gauge for the FPR
1 RX7.com competition fuel pump.
1 modified secondary fuel rail
Use the new injectors in your secondary fuel rail. Install the fuel pump in the stock location and plumb in the new FPR.
YOu do not need external fuel pump or any of that jazz... you can make over 450 rwhp AT LEAST with this fuel setup...
oh yeah, but a haltech too

I'm doing the same deal (cept with a BPort).
Thanks for the advice Kurgan. The initial advice I got on the pump is to go with the Aeromotive 1000. Its about $40 more than the RP (from Summit or Jegs), and appears to pump more fuel - 500 lbs. (or 83 gal.)per hour @ 12 volts and 45 psi. But, it'll require some extra $ for the -10 lines...
Looks like the RP Comp pump is the ND in-tank. Same one SR sells for $259. Nice thing is, its a drop-in. I like easy... Sold!
Do we need a 10AE forum too
All best,
S

The aeromotive pump is loud and you don't need it for up to 500 rwhp. I've known of several people running over 500 rwhp with RP comp fuel pump...
as far the question about the fuel pressure regulator, look up a few posts, I said to go with the SX 1:1... its a good unit. I hear malpassi makes a good one as well, but I'm running the SX.
