What’d be the biggest reason for this? More efficient air flow/temps from the upgrade blower and intercooler?

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The reason is two fold. The intercooler is definitely a much more efficient cooler and the other reason, the more pronounced reason, is the way we set up the boost blow off. This thing ramps boost in much quicker than any other kit since we spin the blower up faster but then dump the excess. This basically just shifts everything to the left on the graph.

Hey, I wanted to ask what injectors/pump combo was on when injector duty cycle hit 107%.

I also wanted to see where people are putting the SC oil cooler if the normal real estate is taken. I have power steering and tranny coolers stacked on the pass side and a 34 row oil cooler on the drivers side...

Hopefully I'll be able to join the ranks soon!

From Birdie's post earlier:
I hit 464 whp and 406 torque on pump at 9.5 psi

yeah wondering more how much psi is safe on pump. before you'd expect knocking i guess.

Like what could i realistically expect from this kit. on pump. i guess good safe numbers for stock internals would be helpful. also interested in what it could do with a built motor and 94 octane. if that makes sense.

You would need to work with your tuner on that. There are more variables to consider. How much fuel are you able to provide? It's not really the pressure that will cause knock, its timing and running out of fuel for the amount of air (pressure) that you're shoving into the engine.

I'm at about 14-15psi on my V1 topgunz setup with no issues.

Stock internals record is like 800hp, I think. Reliably, maybe 650? Depending on your tranny, wtq is gonna be the killer. <425-450wtq is where you wanna be WITH a tranny cooler for us 7AT guys.

yeah i mean assuming other variables are sorted.

My plan is the radium surge tank with new fuel lines and fuel rails. Should be able to put as much fuel as any kit needs.

Your kit hopefully!

if you meant fuel setup.

( Click to show/hide )
Fuel Hanger Surge Tank, Nissan 370Z
not sure which pump setup yet
With either CJM fuel rails or radium fuel rails.
New fuel line from the tank to the rails, just because.
Injector dynamics ID F750 fuel filter.
and probably some id1000 injectors.

It's easy to determine if you need bigger injectors by looking at it's duty cycle, but my question is, How can you determine you need to upgrade fuel rails? I mean what values should I look at to know that the rails are at top capacity?

Think of it this way; bigger rails, more fuel, probably lower duty cycle on the injectors. 3" fire hose puts out a fire faster than a 3/4" one.

Blog Post Radium's Ultimate Fuel Pump Test

this is a pretty good explainer on how to pick your pumps

you can see that the brushless pump (BKS1000) provides the most flow. more than enough for anything on this platform afaik. even at a high boost of 25 psi (assuming your build can even stand that) the BKS1000 needs to output around 80 psi (55 + 25) and will still flow 550lph and only draw 12 amps

Yeah that’s a good resource for sure. There’s also a blog post about ID creating a controller specifically for that pump that puts out crazy flow as well. It’s funny that brushless motors have been in a ton of applications for years and they seem to just be hitting the fuel pump market. My Ryobi impact drill from like 6 years ago is a brushless unit, for instance.
