mikeyb10supra Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 are these compatible with j-spec fuelling?? will they slot straight in place of the j-spec fuel pump? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Why is that you are about 2 - 3 months ahead of everything that I am doing.... I have been told that this is possible, and a good option, as they flow more than the Walbro, under correction. Been advised that this is the best route for me. What are your plans for your car?? Seems rather similar to what I have planned... Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted July 17, 2006 Author Share Posted July 17, 2006 reason being the walbro is noisy....UK is not + flows more and will slot straight in hopefully I am getting the car ready for BPU now as reliably as possible which wil include water/meth injection + lots of cooling but also trying to pave the way for a very small single in process....looking at the Sound Performance gear at the mo...maybe a SP57 or similar I figure if I replace parts that are needed for the single now its less expense when I finally take the plunge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 I have heard the same thing about the Walbro's. My ideas are very similar... Basically doing as much modding as I can to prep the car for single conversion, before and while I get my engine re-build done. Standard internals, BL61 DBB is what I am looking at. I like the idea of earlier spool up, better for road driving. The water/meth injection is probably a good, I should be looking at that as well. Other things that I am going to be putting in are: 264/264 cams HKS cam gears Boost controller Greddy Ultimate Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator 650cc fuel injectors - drop in replacements braid fuel lines Fuel pump, UK spec (by the looks) FMIC - replace my knackered one... Got full decat and K&N induction kit. Basically trying to get everything done, so that I dont have anything else when it comes time to do the single conversion. I also have a drive in single turbo car scheduled for the end of the month, thanks to Matt Harwood. Good luck mate!! keep us informed as to your progress.

merckx Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 When I ordered my Walbro I received a Sytec pump, it's supposed to give the same performance as a Walbro. It's quiet, I've never heard it at all. A trader on here supplied it, works fine. Significantly cheaper than a new UK pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the idea of earlier spool up, better for road driving. a very good choice, im going slightly smaller as im worried about the lag on the auto The water/meth injection is probably a good, I should be looking at that as well. Not to everyones tastes this and im still learning a lot about the whole concept im going for UK cams I think....I believe you compramise some low down torque with the HKS jobbies you wont be dissapointed, I went out in Terry S old car now owned by white lightning now and almost shat myself watch this space money permitting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be good to see and compare once all done!! will be very interesting builds..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Harwood Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Can't say I've found Walbros to be excessively noisy. I can hear a slight whine on idle, but once your moving, or the stereos on, you can't hear it. Dont ge me wrong though, the UK pump is good. It can flow more than a Walbro, but it does cost a lot more. Just for reference, the Sytec is a rebadged Walbro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
