I'm still waiting on my controllers to run the 49614 pumps. It's been 7+ months, where did you find the controllers?Made a post tuning forum.
this will be good for street car boosted people.
when idling I’m down to 3.8amps :-)
what’s your fore system at?
In search of the perfect fuel system for the s550 mustang has come to a end.
first of all… Fuelab is an amazing company to work with. I have had a few of their Prodigy pumps in the past and they have not let me down.
Im excited for the intank brushless future!
Issues we faced with the triple 450s or the 525s is now a thing of the past.
Issues that some people may not know about yet;
With the plastic fuel tanks we have, keeping fuel cool is very hard with high horsepower “brushed” pumps. Many of us have seen it where we get close to critical fuel conditions just by driving around before a race.
- Brushed pumps causing issues with heat in the fuel and the potential of the pump prematurely wearing out causing a lean conditions.
- Having to run no less the 1/2 tank to really make sure pumps are staying cool.
- A crazy amount of amp draw taxing the alternator.
- Poor flow control.
- Noise.
- And the potential of the hobbs switch not firing on pumps 2 and 3.
In the following set up i look at eliminating nearly all the problems that cause issues with fuelling.
Fuelab 49614 500lph brushless pumps (qty 2)
Fuelab 72002 PWM controllers (qty 2)
Fuelab 52902 Electronic fuel pressure regulator (qty 1)
Fuel hat.
-10 Carbon PTFE Stainless fuel hose.
-8 Carbon PTFE Stainless fuel hose.
Relays and power wire for the fuel pumps.
With the above system and utilizing the insane control of the Electronic Fuel Pressure Regulator it idle you will be only using just enough fuel to keep the fuel pressure at 55psi while limiting fuel returning to the tank by the pump speed being slowed down by the signals from the fuel pressure regulator. Soon as you think about touching the gas the response time of the piece will bring the pumps up to speed to again keep the fuel pressure where you need it without rail pressure drop!
This combined with being a brushless pump will keep the pumps and fuel as cool as possible no matter if you are at the traffic lights or at the big end of the track chasing a low 8 or faster!!
But! What if you need more fuel. Simple. Just add another 500L pump and controller and be fuelled to 1900WHP!
keep tuned for updates a I get this all dailed in.
Also for the fuel hat. It’s from SPE and the quality and price is on point. I did have to mill the hanger a little bit to get the pumps to fit nicely.
