Well, I recently installed a walboro pump that Bob at EPP sent me after my first one left me stranded. After about two months I think this pump is starting to go south. I am seeing 48-50 psi at full boost 8 lbs and 60 psi. at idle. Furthermore I don't even know if the MSD BAP is working correctly. If anyone here knows how to diagnose a bad BAP let me know.. Hey Bob I haven't forgotten to send your pump I just haven't had any time to wrap it up and send it back..

I havn't checked this thread since I made that post. I have 60lb Motrons, the issue is FP dropping to around 50 & AFR as recorded at the track via HP Tuners & my AEM WB is cycling between 11.0 & 11.9 WOT in high gear. It goes up & down at each data point, I never remember to actually look at the WB gauge during a 1/4 mile pass so I don't know if that's doing something different than the logs. When I installed the Racetronix pump I reused the filter screen from the old pump. New screen is ordered & I'll change that out & be sure the pump isn't hung up & not dropping to the bottom of the tank since the fuel level readings seem a little goofy since the pump install.

Hey Got Me Som, I checked the two wires (black/red) coming out of the BAP and it read 15. This was at idle so I'm assuming your 17-18 is at WOT correct?? My other question how could I check the voltage at WOT if I don't have none of these programs that everyone else has.

does your bap have a potentiometer?

i just got my msd bap and will putting it in very soon and reporting results.

not sure how to check voltage at w.o.t without strapping it to a dyno and getting a multimeter to your fuel pump relay.

Yea it's got one. Let me know how everything turns out and how you adjusted the potentiometer. I think your pushing as much rwhp as I am so this should be interesting. Thanks Andy

well check this out, i was driving it yesterday to test some things out, now this is without the bap, my fuel press is dropping alll the way down to 40 psi.. I think the bap will help bring that up but i think i gotta bigger problem (as in fuel pump going)

so now i gotta see how this all pans out.

i'm getting a new converter put in so my car is gonna be down for a week or so, we'll have to retune with the bap for shift points etc.

It will help me give some safety but it wont be enough for me to add spray. so i'm going to be doing research on twin intank pumps now.

I dont know why but they say forced induction cars use more fuel than other applications, maybe cause of the heat they cause..

Yea, it looks like a dual pump setup looks more like an option for me now too. As far as it dropping to 40 psi. that is what my first pump started doing before it went south. Let me know what happens with that BAP. Thanks
