Do you have instructions on the install? I want to see if it is something I can do on my own.

+1...also interested but not the most mechanically inclined.

That is the last thing to get sorted out. I have some notes with a few photos that I gave to Mike and Chris but it doesn't really give a full grasp on the installation unless you are already somewhat familiar with whats going on inside the tank or open it up and look around first.

Assembly is very minor... the hard part is running hoses across the gas tank and getting them connected and supported in the proper spots

^Out in SoCal we're going full bore now that it's cooled off, with events every week, having to make do.. Here is our DIY fuel fix in progress:

10/13 Willow Springs Session one:

Ahh last session of the day:

I personally do all my installs with DIY posts from this site, B/W included instructions are usually so one-dimensional they're better for keeping greasy parts off my bench, so if you need someone to git r done, I'm still posted up on list #1 from the first day, first coupla hours. Quid Pro Quo? Camera is charged!

phunk 10-17-2012 11:47 PM

You can order any time you want now, I still have one with your name on it! Install isn't bad I would walk you through anything on the phone that you didnt sort out. Its honestly just bolting a device inside the gas tank, and connecting 3 hoses. Its just that the 3 hoses are hard to get your hands on and its just a tricky sequence to it.

But they are ready to go for anyone who wants to tackle it without the nicest instruction manual.

martin82 10-18-2012 01:43 AM

send one partially sponsored to me and I will give u 100 pictures during install LOL!

$0.50 bounty per photo used for updated installation manual :)

ENT-Z 10-18-2012 08:30 PM

any update on the FI model of this?

phunk 10-18-2012 09:00 PM

There is a local car here that is going to be testing it with a pair of walbro 255 for a built motor twin turbo setup here in the next couple months, thats currently the only thing lined up.

phunk 10-18-2012 09:52 PM

It was my intention to test it myself using a single Aeromotive 340 in my TT E85 370 so that I could see if it performed as well without the additional assistance of the special siphon model walbro 255 we use... But I am deep in R&D with a GTR that was borrowed to me and cannot afford the time to mess with it.. By the time the gtr is done I will be in dead of winter here.

Actually this might happen sooner. I didn't realize the car was already running now. So apparently after some break in and mild tuning they want to change out to this pump setup then crank the boost. Sounds like it could happen within a couple weeks if they don't run into anything major.

The 23th. What's what tracking has. :tup:

Been working away on the installation instructions for a couple hours now. Many of you guys have really wanted to see the job before hand so I am getting it done. Nothing much to say really, lol, just needed to take a break here and figured I would mention it. If I can get this done tonight I will post up the link!

Woke up with the FedX guy beating on my front. Had this in his hands. :DThe bad part of this is. I can't install it until the 13th of next month. That's my next 2 days off.:(

Germanguy 10-23-2012 10:19 AM

Coon-azz 10-23-2012 12:23 PM

I think all it really requires is a diagram with how to route the hoses and a diagram for the wiring, and just a couple handy tips, like which side to install hoses on first for ease (passenger). Everything else is pretty self evident.

Agree. I've seen nothing that would imply a change in fuel system design between model years for any 370

martin82 10-23-2012 05:17 PM

got a '12 and has fuel starve.. end of story

Mike, I actually stopped working on the manual last night because I ordered some small parts that I think would make the job a lot easier! I should have them tomorrow i hope then I will do a full install on the test tank and document it.

The manual is turning out really nice! I will send you a copy of where I am so far.

Oh, I also thought of a way to perform a sweep test of the level sensor so that you can make sure it has full swing and doesnt contact the baffle before you put it all together and start the car. I will be adding that to the manual hopefully tonight.

phunk 10-30-2012 11:06 PM

finalllly finished the installation manual!

I like the part that says not to drive without the seats put back in!

Sooo, how much does this solution cost, exactly?

^ thanks!

Nism0370 11-24-2012 02:30 PM

Are these still available to new buyers (not on the waitlist) or are they all spoken for? What's the install time for the average "do it yourself"er with the installation guide? Thanks!

I'd say it will take about half a day. That's what it took me. Wiring and all.

Rusty 11-24-2012 03:17 PM

I'm installing mine now. Have question. Does the cross over line get hooked back up to the OEM pump?

Give yourself a day to do it. I'm taking pictures of my install. Will post up, once I'm done.

Which line now? There's three of them to be clear. One of the feeds will feed the OEM pump though.

The stock metal line with the black hose that used to go on the side of the OEM pump on the passenger side.

I'd have to see a pic. I don't have my notes with me.

Don't you guys have a revised version that Phunk came up with later?

Rusty 11-24-2012 03:29 PM

You have PM. :tiphat:
