I can't think of anyone in all motor using mechanical off the top of my head, so what electric pumps are you using? What is too small and what is overkill?

Remember the ones that Venom used to sell? Were those Bosch pumps?

Thanks in advance

 

I know its way too large for what I need, but I have an Aeromotive A1000 on my Comp.4 car.

 

AS OF LAST YEAR WELDON PUMPS WERE THE WAY TO GO WITH ALCOHOL

 

Thanks. It seems like the Weldon pumps fail a lot and is about the same price, if not more, than a mechanical setup. Have you had trouble with those pumps going out?

 

it's all about mounting the pump...i have had my pump for 4 years in integra no problems yet.

 

With all-motor, you want to stay away from mechanical pumps, simply because you don't want the parasitic drag from the pump on the motor. Weldon pumps are great for all-motor. So are Aeromotive and a few others. I personally use Product Engineering.

 

Magnaflow or Weldon

 

I know that there are some problems when running Methanol on some pumps.
It has a tendency to "eat" thing up. Ethanol on the other hand is very friendly to just about any pump.

I have heard good things about the Bosch pumps too.

You run alchohol on a comp4 car?

 

I run the SX engineering pump works great..

 

No, sorry I didn't read that he was only looking for Alcohol pumps.

Yeah we didn't want a mechanical pump for that very reason. We have an Aeromotive A1000 and at least Aeromotive will tell you that its not designed for Meth, and it will shorten the life of the pump, but people do use it with success. Everyone else just tells you their pumps are for Meth whether they were designed for it or not.

We can buy 3 A1000s for the price of some of the others.

Thanks for everyone's input

 

What size injectors are you guys using for 2.2-2.4 liters?

 

we had 1200cc injectors with a weldon pump on the horizon crx

 

we use aeromotive and have not had a problem

hey, anyone familiar with the Paxton/Granatelli pump ... similar to the Aeromotive I think. Can it handle alcohol ?

Magnafuel

 

Do you guys running an electric pump use an alternator or just battery, if battery what kind or size?

Thanks

 

No alternator and a 16 V TurboStart.

We could run all weekend and never charge it and never see below 15V. It weighs 48 lbs...but hang it off the front and its no biggie.
