Hey man
as soon as you get it all sorted go get it j3 chiped and tuned. It will save you a lot of hassle in the future.

Are you testing with a wideband o2 sensor? Sounds like you went too far / aggressive with the timing. Good luck with it.
cheers fellas! |

You need an 023, or a 044 with an in-tank kit. Jason this concerns me now as im running a 040 from the bosch website Bosch 0 580 254 040 In Tank Fuel Pump Bosch 040 fuel pumps are universal style in tank fuel pump replacements recommended for vehicles exceeding OE specifications. The Bosch 040 fuel pump is one of the only in tank fuel pump that can be compared with the Walbro 255LPH High Pressure series fuel pumps for use in vehicles with up to 700 horsepower. Bosch 040 Fuel Pump Specs: Bosch Part Number: 0 580 254 040 Minimum Current: 12 Volts Operating Pressure: 94 PSI (6.5 Bar) Minimum Flow @ Outlet: 80 GPH (300 LPH) Fuel Pump Location: In Tank High Temperature Reduction: 8 GPH (30 LPH) Weight: 930 Grams (2.05 Pounds) Fuel Pump Connections: Inlet: Open Base Outlet: M10 x 1.0 Electrical: Positive M6 / Negative M5 this is how i chose the pump, seemed ideal are we to understand these specs are wrong? not having a go at you mate, just would have thought bosch would have the right specs for their product concerning indeed |

ok seems we are both right kinda, the 102lph rating is correct however that is measured @6.5bar! interestingly they only quote the flow rate of the 044 @4bar
so yeah, who knows |
