Dual Fuel Pump System!!!!
Hi
Does anyone know where I can get a dual in-tank fuel pump system for the evo??? Turbotrix has it in their car but its custom made and they are not mass producing it. AMS said they'll probably release it in 2-3 weeks.

You can make it yourself quite easy. If you look at some of the supra faqs they put together a dual walboro system that is pretty basic. Why not go with one large external pump?

your best (& cheapest) bet would be is to go with a bosch 044 fuel pump. it'll handle 600 WHP. also the walbro 342 will work too (stock fuel pump for dodge viper). i would look at bigger injectors after that. maybe 800-860cc

One system I suggest is to install a 255lph pump intank then install another in-line pump immediately after the fuel filter in the engine bay and connect the second pump to the injector. It is also important that you install a fuel regulator.
I have experienced two detonations in the past which proved to be costly, all because of leaning out at hight boost. My solution was to change the fuel filter to a pro race type (aeromotive) and plug in another fuel pump after the filter. That solved my detonation problem and car run on 24psi boost easily.
I also discovered that the stock fuel filter on mitsubishi EVOs impedes the flow of fuel causing detonations to countless of EVO owners. You have to throw it away.

My plans are to eventually have a "dual fuel" setup using the walbro 255 in the stock tank, and add a 5 gal fuel cell in the trunk with an in line high capacity pump for race gas. Then use the valving setup from a twin tank gasoline burning pickup truck to switch between the two tanks/pumps.

Thanks for the replies guys.
I've heard pple running over 450whp with just a walbro pump. What voltage are they using? My fuel pressure seems to drop when boost goes above 24psi.

The downside is that the sanctioning bodies of many street race competitions don't allow any fuel cells. So you're out of entering any of those if you've got one. Bummer. So I'm mulling over ways to have an easily removable fuel cell where the lines could be plugged and all. Be looking forward to people working out the kinks of this system. Guess that'll likely be me in a couple of months. We'll have to talk a lot and share ideas and findings Fourdoor.
I would enjoy sharing ideas and experances as we move alonge in these projects

If you don't want to spend a lot of money on custom fuel lines, fuel tank, pumps, etc and are just looking for a high-horsepower pump solution, call Buschur racing. They just developed a drop in-pump solution for 500+ WHP Evo's.
