Deatschwerks X3 Fuel system

[NGOT8R]

I will make sure to ask the shop that's doing it all what issues they encountered, but so far the only complaint I've got was that the crossover line is being blocked by the coolant pipe so it doesn't fit in. Gonna call DW today and try to see what's up with that.

Send a pic of the coolant pipe if possible. I might be able to suggest something for you.

Thank you, will do for sure, the shop is trying to figure it out now too, hope they get it done. DW just told us over the phone that "it should fit without problems"...

Is this the pipe that’s causing you trouble?

Here’s one

It could also be the driver’s side heater core hose pipe. MMR makes some fittings that can convert it to -AN at a lower profile. I bought one for mine in case I need it.

You’d obviously need a -10AN male ORB fitting to thread into it, cut your driver’s side heater core hose and use a hose barb to join a new section of hose to the remaining section of hose and then use a push lock -10AN 90 degree female fitting to screw onto the male fitting. Note: Be sure to use ear clamps to make sure the hose doesn’t blow off of the fittings. It shouldn’t, as I believe the coolant only has about 21 PSI of pressure in it, but better to be safe than sorry. This should get your profile low enough to clear your crossover.

They ended up telling us to run it behind the manifold, so I just hope the guys at the shop can squeeze it in somehow. Worst case scenario I’ll just have to go the route you suggested, praying that the parts can be overnighted.

You can also use one of these like I‘m going to do. No need for a crossover line with this. It can feed each rail from the back, as well as the Di pump.

There are several workarounds that can get you through this problem. If you haven’t already, please ask the shop to take detailed pics for you to share with us.

Do we need to feed the DI pump tho? Can it stay standalone?

I’ve yet to start anything on my install. This is just me trying to preplan how I’m going to approach my install. There are a couple of ways of doing things from what I understand such as, running a single regulator or dual regulators.

I wish I could be of more help to you right now, but unfortunately I won’t know more until I go hands on with mine. By then, you’ll probably be well into enjoying your new fuel system.

Who will be tuning yours for you?

Wengerd, seems to be the best choice these days.

Okay cool! It’s good to know that he has no problem tuning Deatschwerks.

What injectors are you running and what power adder do you have?

DW 95 lbs and ESS G3X, wanted to go full DW setup

What are you shooting for power-wise?

No target tbh, just trying to get some more juice out of the car, hopefully safely.

Is your installer going to utilize the SW pulse damper?

I was messing around trying to see how to go about installing mine in the Holly rails and here’s what I came up with.

It should be the same for the DW rails. I figure, why not try and use it.
