(I'm not knocking this as a solution, just for most this may seem a tad more drastic than adding a bolt on external surge)I know your not having a go, but in my situation, not only is it a better setup (IMO) but it's cheaperIntankKpm Fuel module alone $1430 (inc postage)Fuel tank $150Already have adjustable fuel reg and required wiringTotal $1580Surge setupTank and twin dw300 $1280Fitting kit $380Wiring kit $225Total $1885I can't say much more until it's complete Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88267-reviews-of-kpm-1000hp-intank/page/3/#findComment-1472669 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JETURBO ...JD TUNING ADELAIDE... Gold Donating Members 23,708 Member For: 17y 9d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 20/05/14 05:40 AM Share Posted 20/05/14 05:40 AM I see a fuel system lasting 500 hrs OR LESS on E85 an expensive way to a bad situation as it can be very COMMON for one pump to fail and u wont know it.Where as something as simple as a plaz undercar surge that's is tried and tested for a decade now is for one cheaper ( brand new delivered to your door $1000 ) 2/ u can hear the proven 044 humming away nicely ( bare min a bit of audible reassurance its working ) Again what results hrs wise would u expect if u use e85 sometimes ........makes u wonder Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88267-reviews-of-kpm-1000hp-intank/page/3/#findComment-1472682 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 10m 8d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 20/05/14 05:46 AM Share Posted 20/05/14 05:46 AM I was curious about that.. I didn't really want to post my comment..What does the 500hr mean? Because that's talking about buying something for your car that potentially won't last 20000kms..Sure if it's a tiny piece of hose that's fine replace it when you service the beasty.. but if it's a whole fuel pump.. Wow.. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88267-reviews-of-kpm-1000hp-intank/page/3/#findComment-1472685 Share on other sites More sharing options...
