Best Fuel pump for our GNs??

[Black Sunshine]

Thanks for the info. So since the 2nd pump automatically would turn on at 15 psi it would probably be overkill whenever I floor the car right? I don't want the car to flood and bog down every time I floor the car. Maybe a single pump would be the best bet after all? I would just have to get an upgraded brand over walbro.

you can get a double pumper and just run one pump till you need the second one.

No. It would be overkill at an idle if it were on all the time.That's why it comes on at 15. The car will run just fine. If you don't yet need a second pump,leave the fuse out for the second pump and it will never come on.

im at the point i need 2 a better fuel rails

 

[Black Sunshine]

Good point. However, do you have to drop the tank in order to access the 2nd pump and run it? Or is there a way to leave it disconnected at the other end of whatever it connects to and leave the end at the 2nd pump connected?

 

[Black Sunshine]

Ah just seen your response after I posted the previous message Type. Thanks for the info everyone.

Sorry for the noob question but is the 2nd pump's fuse located near where the stock location for the pump fuse is at? If not is it located somewhere for easy access so I can remove the fuse out or put it in on the fly?

I wouldn't mess with disconnecting a fuse for the second pump. Just leave the fuse alone.

The Racetronix unit comes with 2 pigtails for under the hood - a "red" one for the "red" pump and a "blue" one for the "blue" pump. When the unit arrives, both of these pigtails have jumper wires in them. This will cause both pumps to run. The idea is to have one pump jumpered so that it is your primary pump, and the other pigtail run to a hobbs switch. The hobbs switch gets triggered at 15psi and activates the secondary pump. When boost drops below 15 psi, the hobbs deactivates and kills power to the secondary pump so that you're only running on one pump (until you get above 15psi boost).

In order to run the Racetronix unit on one pump, you just pull one of the jumper wires from the under-hood pigtail. Doesn't matter which one. If you like, you can even plug in the hobbs switch to the pigtail (so as to keep dirt & junk out of the wiring connector). Then, just don't connect a vacuum / boost source to the hobbs; if the hobbs never sees boost, it never activates the relay to the secondary pump.

I make it sound a lot more complicated than it really is. Racetronix makes it VERY simple, I promise.

I don't know how Red's DP works.

Running both pumps won't cause any issues. The second one comes on only when needed. The fuse will be readily accessible.

I have a tiny switch mounted on my dash that completes the circuit for my 2nd pump when I am at the track. If my first pump does not work it can be my pump to get me home without any worry or hassle.

Thanks so much for the info everyone. Just ordered the Racetronix double pumper. Hope I'm a happy customer.

 

[Boost231]

you will be, you go with the walbro or Aeromotive option?

 

[Black Sunshine]

Walbro. Figured 2 of them would be enough for both 42.5# and 80# injectors.

 

[Boost231]

you will be happy

Please make sure you join our support forum before the product arrives so you can spend some time reading about it.

I don't see the support forum anywhere. I'm not even sure if I registered before I placed my order because I can't log in. I prefer to register to as few places as possible. Will I get an e-mail when the order has shipped? I'm kind of anxious for it since it's the last piece I need to get this big job done.
