Even at really low figures I.e. 20km DTE?Or is it still advised not to 'trash' it with less than 1/4 tank?Thanks!Yes 100%.All Streetfighter systems have been on 100s cars now for over 3 years.We have had not 1 surge issue ever reported back to us.The reason for this is that they a a properly engineered product that has been fully desihned and therafter tested for , flow volume, anti surge and correct system pressures.Unlike a surge tank it is a complex design that allows perfect manners.Not recommended however on testing, we raced a car around Malalla race track with less than 5 litres in the tank . No surge and the fuel pressure remained perfect until we ran out of fuel on the third lap. 1

boost69 Legacy Donating Member 737 Member For: 21y 3m 29d Posted 27/04/15 06:04 AM Posted 27/04/15 06:04 AM Assuming you just change the in tank pump to a much higher flowing one, will you need a retune?...(assuming you're keeping the stock regulator)Just want to know if I should be upgrading the pump at the same time as the injectors.

Re what happens in the top end from a tune that's trying to work around falling fuel pressure, it might run a tad rich, but it should be fine. This is all assuming that the reg is swaped to match the pump flow 1

Includes. Streetfighter Intank module utisng Walbro 460 pump Direct replacement High flow pressure regulator Plug and play, relay and wiring kit. -legal -no smells -no noise -directy fit / no mess -NO SURGE Availble o/night Australia wide hi just wondering would I need to re-tune after installing the walbro? its on 370rwkw and sometimes surge now thanks

However, id recommend getting it on a dyno just incase. 2

No surge and the fuel pressure remained perfect until we ran out of fuel on the third lap.Does this no surge recommendation differ for ba/f to fg?As in the bf sedans the swirl pot doesnt sit very low in the tankSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
