I'm going to pick them up tomorrow morning on my way home from work. I pass thru there. I'll send them out tomorrow as well

Definitely send one to Autotech. CP-E doesn't need one as they are already working on F-150 and Focus ST. We need to find one more vendor to agree to look into upgrading, so I would just hold on to the second one or just buy the one for for now and we can always buy more later if more vendors want to step up.

Interested to see how this project proceeds.

Pretty cool stuff for sure and thanks to Darrell (on behalf of the entire Eco Community) for having picked this item up and then in turn, shipping it off for the necessary R&D work. :ok.

Good to see progress on this, hopefully someone comes up with something soon. I do have a question about this though, when I'm logging the truck I never see the duty cycle go above .48 and if the pressure isn't dropping off during a WOT run how are we out of fuel?

I've said we're not out of fuel...at least some of us

I don't know what caused this thread to have such a weird formatting. I edited the posts from today to see if it was something there.
Found it!
Carry on!

Ive been down this road with the Mazda's, so here is something i suggest. Both Ford and BMW use the Bosch setup for DI. There is a company hanging out on the bimmer forums that have a new HPFP upgrade that should work for us, if not, slightly modified, will work for us. If i had the time right now, i'd just post the info, but its easily obtained by hitting some of the x35 forums around.

I think they can support up to 750hp now..

Thanks ill see if I can dig up the info.

Which forum did you see it on so I don't have to search forever

EcoPowerParts · August 22, 2013, 06:08:49 PM

Yeah I don't think that pump is going to work for us...

jomc111 · August 22, 2013, 06:18:01 PM

Man your quick lol. I just found it you beat me to it

You guys give up too easily

jomc111 · August 22, 2013, 08:08:16 PM

No one said we are giving up , we just sent pumps out to be looked at. And 4dr has something in the works thay sounds like will be a game changer. I myself will be able to start testing stuff as soon as I finish getting rid of my speed.

Dont be quick to judgment.
