S1.SE vs S1.E = There is no doubt the S1.E will be able to reach your goals. There are just 2 reasons to consider the S1.SE. Since it includes the billet rails, it eliminates the factory fuel rail delivery pipe at the front of the engine above the passenger valve cover. The fuel rail hoses come in and out at the rear of the engine, removing some visible clutter from the engine bay. In the case of the Stillen kit, customers have found this convenient since this part of the engine bay is already very cluttered with that kit.

Anyone know how big an issue this is when using the A2A kit, since the charge pipe no longer runs across the front of the engine bay.

The other purpose is that you'd already have the rails if you decided to upgrade the vehicle further in later phases. We have a new 370z twin pump that is PnP with the S1 kits (already installed and testing in a few cars), and there will be a S2 hose kit to follow this winter or spring. The S2 hose kit will require the rails.

Twin pump gets rid of all the hacking and soldering? How about a single that's plug-n-play? Either way, how much?

I think E85 will eat those stock plastic hats. No?

One note.. if you order it at the same time as a S1.E or S1.SE fuel system, you can skip the $85 install kit. This is because we will automatically swap out the S1 kit's stock hat install kit for the billet hat install kit at the time of shipping.

Price in sheet adjusted

Is this new, because I emailed on Nov 9 and said:

-Flex Fuel (sensor, wiring, anything you can provide will help)
-Anything else that will make the install easier, more reliable I would consider as well.

Glad to see you doing something in this area! Have details and price, so I can add it to my sheet?

Adjusted Fuel Clip support and removed F.I. fuel return kit as an option. ;)

Thank you for chiming in Charles!

Its the same with the A-A since the fuel inlet tube is right near the throttles. Customers have installed the S1.E with these Stillen kits but they have to bend the fuel inlet tube a little to make space.

Twin pump doesn't eliminate the requirement for wiring. It actually adds more wiring since there is a second pump. But it will eliminate the need to make any modifications to the stock fuel pump housing. They will be around $550 + pumps + installation accessory options + optional surge protection baffle kit. You could run it as a single pump if you wished, although its probably not worth it unless you figure it is inevitable that you will one day want to run it as a twin.

No E85 will not harm the stock plastic hat, nor the filter housing and canister which are made from the same material. No concerns there! There are countless 370z owners running E85 with modified stock fuel pump housings and return kits.

The fittings we have for adding the flex sensor we have had for several months. But we do not sell the sensors or have anything for wiring it to the ECU. We recommend working entirely with your tuner on sourcing your flex sensor and having them provide your specific wiring instructions to connect the sensor to your ECU where they will coordinate with your software settings.

We haven't set a price on the fittings since we haven't added them to the website yet. It will probably be $45 for the fittings to put it on the return line, or $70 for the fittings to put it on the feed line. If someone asked me for some right now that is what I would charge in the meantime until we get them priced and configured on the site.

Attached a photo of flex sensor installed to return side using mentioned fittings (its just a 180 U-Bend and a QD adapter to splice it in, to put it on the feed side would need a second QD adapter).

Also attached a pic of one of the first twin pumps that was shipped out to a popular vendor/tuner for testing a couple weeks ago.

I ordered MD ART pipes. Should I get the Innovate gauge (Ethanol, boost, afr)? If so, will I need to install a bung on one of the art pipes, or can MD do that for me? Do folks usually just monitor 1 bank for AFR? Time is running out on these deals.

TopgunZ 11-26-2017 07:33 PM

Innovate..yes
Single bung in art..yes
Where to mount it...hold it up there and Mark a spot with a sharpi. That's what I did and it worked out problem free

Senna-F1 11-27-2017 04:01 PM

Check the spreadsheet for some deals. Innovate 25% off today!

Seb says I still need the ECA-2 (black box). Asked what it did that this gauge doesn't, but didn't get a response to that part.
