Fuel Pump Flow Rates

Recommended Posts

Hello,

Does anyone have the specs for the various fuel pumps?

I am thinking about using a 16v pump on my 24v supercharged corrado.

Now I know the 16v pumps operates at a much higher presure that the VR6 one, but thats not the whole story is it?

 

eg the vr6 pump operates at 3bar and the 16v one operates at 5bar, but that might be 5bar at 20litres oer minute flow rate, where as the vr pump is 3 bar at 50liters per minute. so when the big fuel demand comes from the engine the 16v fuel pump cannot maintain its pressure and it drops off.

 

Am I making sense?

anyone got the stats?

Anyone know if a 16v fuel pump will be man enough for the job of fueling a supercharged 2.824v motor?

 

comment/advice please!
