Was wondering if anyone had maxed out there eliminator pump.
I can't boost more than 37 psi due to the pump, on their web site it says that it is rated @ 1100 hp force induction and i'm only making 800 hp so is there something wrong with my pump or do i need to buy a stronger pump ?

 

Sorry thought that i posted in the forced induction fourm don't know how to move it

 

what size lines are you running tell us more about the setup and the injectors and what not.

 

Their rating is at the crank and most likely your making 800 to the wheels, right? 1100hp power at the crank is about 890whp. What's the fuel pressure? Line size? Injector size?

I'm making somewhere between 750-800hp on an A1000. There's something wrong if you're maxing an eliminator pump out at 800hp.

 

What size wire to your pump?

 

I'm running a -10 feed & -8 return

I'm also running a aeromotive fuel pump controller with a 10g wire to the pump.

Adriano</TD></TR></TABLE> feed line is a -10 and return is a -8 , fuel pressure is at 55 with 1600cc rc injector

 

an a100 pushes out around 600 lb per hour right and your using 160lb injestors what % are the injectors peaking at? i think you can find your answer after that
depends on whos tuning as well some tuners are fuel crazy when they shouldnt be others can be quite conservative and make a motor run well

 

i have seen people use the wrong filters too that can cause a real problem

 

Definately shouldn't be maxing the Eliminator pump out. I have one and made 714whp on it with plenty of room left. As Kataku said, check your filters also. Maybe your are having a voltage drop and not getting enough voltage to the pump?

What size are you running from the cell/tank into the pump? -10an or -12an? Check voltage as well like other have said, going by the aeromotive map looks like about 200lb/hr drop if you lose 1 volt. You could be flowing the same amount of fuel as an A1000.

Possibly the fuel pump controller could be causing voltage drop if something is wrong with it?
