Check this out.. Im running out of pump, all I have is stock pump and inline for my procharger. We ended up making more power then anticipated so now I need an intank. I was suggested to find the Racetronix dual intank kit. First off... is it just me or is this totally overkill? Im going to end up making about 590rwhp. Im running stock rails, 60lb mototrons, and a SD tune, all the supporting mods.. 6.0L heads.. dual springs.. custom blower cam.. etc.

A friend of mine is a Racetronix dealer (works at a turbo diesel shop) and made a phone call for me to Racetronix. Turns out they dont even make the dual intank anymore... and that the single intank plug-n-play should be PLENTY of fuel pump for me @ less then 600rwhp. My friend also called one of his suppliers in Nevada and they confirmed Id be fine with the single.

Also... do I need a voltage booster? BAP? If I dont really need it I dont want it, unless Im convinced.

Anyways.. whats your guys thoughts on this? Im going to order this thing next week.

THANKS.

Personally, I would go with the dual in-tank. Yeah, the single Walbro with a MSD Boost a pump will keep you safe at that horsepower rating, but your probably going to want to go higher at some point. At least with the dual in-tanks, you'll never have to worry about it. You won't have to go out and buy your fuel system all over again. I had the same setup your talking about getting, the MSD boost a pump and single intank racetronix and sold them both and got the dual intank racetronix. Very nice wuality and badass setup, plus comes with the hobbs switch for the second pump. Go to lonniesperformance.com if you can't find a dual intank... They made mine.

I cant even find a duel in-tank. Because they only made it for thunder racing project car i think. I would just go with the single racetronix drop in kit. with the booster and keep your inline that should be plenty of fuel for now.

lonniesperformance.com doesn't make racetronix dual in-tanks anymore? I only got mine like 2 months ago...

Lonnies assembles them with Racetronix parts.

I guess there was a time when you could buy the duals straight from Racetronix?.?.? Dealer only item is what I heard. I didnt know another company was making them. Thanks for the heads up.

Im pretty sure Ive decided on the single with a BAP. Duals just seem like a lot more then I need @ less then 600rwhp when it even notes (on the website) that under 600 the single will be plenty sufficient, not to mention $250 vs $600.

Talk to lonnie over at lonniesperformance.com. He is a great guy who is very knowledgable. If he can't fix you up, he'll point you in the right direction.

The dual intank pump setup from Lonnie is WELL worth the money. I'll post install pics once I get the pump in this week.

Tis better to have more fuel pump and not need it, than need more fuel pump and not have it, say Confucious.

I have the racetronix single and harness, an M6, and a MSD pump booster (that was verified working and kicking out 18VDC), and without methanol, my **** ran out of fuel at 550RW.... I also have rails, 60lb inj, #6 line, FMFPR that is boost ref'd, and the stock line for return. I was really hoping for more than that... This all happened at 5K RPMs.

Thats sooo strange.... it almost doesnt make sense to me, like theres something not working right. My stock intank + inline Procharger supplied pump didnt run out until about 5600rpm.... and that was reaching to 5900 before shutdown... hitting 561rwhp. Its hard for me to believe that the setup you have didnt work for 550rwhp. Just doesnt make sense, ya know?

Im still up in the air about this... Ive had 2 credible sources say a single + BAP would be more then plenty for anything less then 600rwhp, Ive had a couple say its "on the line". I know overkill is better.... which would be dual pumps.

Thanks for all the info guys.

Different cars require different amounts of fuel to make the same RWHP.

The installation is just as important as the application. Sometimes things are overlooked.

The bucket's reserve capacity must be considered under high-HP and extended WOT applications.

Converting to a FMFPR must be done properly. Many people make the mistake of simply removing the in-tank regulator when installing a FMFPR system.

Avengeance - search this forum (and others) and see that I was told that the setup I described for my turbo engine would feed 700rwhp. Mine likely ran out early on the dyno also because the mixture was really fat. It was the second pull on a new engine/turbo...


Racetronics
Why would you want to keep the stock regulator in line along with the FMFPR?? What benefit comes with 2 regulators?? I have the factory line used for the return...

I am in the process of getting setup with Nate's sumped tank right now... are you saying I need a stock regulator rigged up behind it?

Racetronix

The factory regulator routes the return fuel to the bucket so it can not be simply removed. It must be replaced or modified.

BTW this thread is about dual in-tank systems not singles.

I'm getting ready to upgrade my fuel system for a custom 88mm turbo setup with the goal of 900 rwhp. What is the recomended max hp for a turbo setup using twin intake pumps?

Frost

Thanks RT

MIGHTYMOUSE made over 900 with 2 in the tank...

I was told by Lonnie that the dual in-tank should support to 1500 crank HP, but they haven't tested it to that point. BTW, you will have to remove your bucket assembly and send it to Lonnie for the dual pump setup.
