Any thoughts, input on this product?

Nice looking setup. Just don't know anyone running one at the moment.Any thoughts, input on this product?
This is part of my build/fuel system plan. I've decided to use the pwm controller (in conjunction with another pwm source). You should speak with Dakota and DW if you have any questions, they're very helpful.Any thoughts, input on this product?
No flaws, but the 440 has a larger casing. Someone is gonna have to see if the OEM basket can accommodate the fatter pump(s) or what modifications need to be made to allow them to fit. If you're not planning on running a return line, you need to get the PWM controller version.I’m wanting to drop this pump in an 18 Stage 2 whipple car add ID1050s and go E85 safely 700-800whp
If it could replace the DW400 in the stock hat and be a return less fuel system. What are the flaws in this idea?
I was thinking the same thing.... Brushless is by far better.... But fuel line size could be a factor too. I dunno but very interestedI’m wanting to drop this pump in an 18 Stage 2 whipple car add ID1050s and go E85 safely 700-800whp

The other "flaw" is that many of what I would call "maintstream" tuners won't tune the car if you don't follow a tried and true fuel delivery method. I won't speak for them, but you should call the tuner you plan on using prior to this approach (like I did) and see if they'll tune it with what you've done.
Not sure I'm understanding your question. A booster is never required, just a method for getting more flow out of a pump or pump(s) rather than upgrading them.Would this require a BAP?
I guess my question is will the factory pump controller give more voltage if needed or will it be the standard 13-14 v only?Not sure I'm understanding your question. A booster is never required, just a method for getting more flow out of a pump or pump(s) rather than upgrading them.
The 440 is particularly capable in this regard as you can boost it all the way to 18v continuous or intermittently to 22 volts. Speaking with DW, that's probably underrated but that's what they've published. That means at desired peak pressure, it's gonna spin harder and give you significantly more flow (and more current draw obviously). You'd have to ask DW what the flow rates are at 18v and 20v and 22v, etc.
The controller will not boost the system voltage (generally 12-14 volts, but around 13.5 v when healthy). The controller will only control how much dwell time is in between the PWM pulses and thus how much effort the pump is putting out at that system voltage. If you want to boost, you'll have to buy a booster.I guess my question is will the factory pump controller give more voltage if needed or will it be the standard 13-14 v only?
Thanks Angrey I appreciate you sharing you’re knowledge. This stuff is way over my head. Lol.The controller will not boost the system voltage (generally 12-14 volts, but around 13.5 v when healthy).
