Fuel starvation, who else?

this is a big priority and I'm surprised we don't have a vendor stepping up yet... four options 1. traditional external swirl pot 2. 'internal swirl pot' that was discussed

this is a big priority and I'm surprised we don't have a vendor stepping up yet... four options

1. traditional external swirl pot
2. 'internal swirl pot' that was discussed here a couple mos ago
3. internal baffling
4. complete fuel system replacement, ie fuel cell, new pumps lines, etc

Option 4 may be necessary for those doing real racing or TT setups . Option 3 should be the cheapest but no idea how effective this will be when the tank gets low. I'm planning to give this a try. Basically a coffee can with holes that surrounds the fuel pump in the tank and partially resists flow away from the pump in corners. Option 2 should be the effective but more expensive and would require some engineering specific to this car.
