patrol_maverick Member 54 Member For: 12y 10m 25d Gender: Male Location: Taree NSW Posted 31/03/14 11:19 PM Share Posted 31/03/14 11:19 PM What is a suitable external fuel pump to use with a Barra turbo from a BA?I'm doing an engine conversion into a Nissan Patrol, and I think it will be easier to run an inline external pump.Should I use a surge tank too? Out of interest, are the stock fuel pumps (N/A vs. turbo) the same pump, or are they different?I'm planning on staying under 300kw. Also, what is the maximum safe limit for a tune on a stock motor with a 3 inch exhaust and bigger intercooler?

I thought the 044 for a high kw tune.How does the 044 compare the the stock pump?

Considering the offroad work you are doing I think it would be a good idea to fit a small surge tank even if it is only a 1L capacity Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/87879-suitable-external-fuel-pump-for-ba-barra-turbo/#findComment-1463079 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a vl turbo pump, I used one with a mechanical lift pump and surge tank in my jackaroo with a Expensive Daewoo 5.0l conversion Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/87879-suitable-external-fuel-pump-for-ba-barra-turbo/#findComment-1463708 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intank that is. Internally sounds rude.

The flow rates mentioned go from 140lph up to 300lph+ for the 044.What are the specs for the stock pump, and roughly what amount of power are they good for?
