For all you Tuning freaks out there, I have just done a 1hd pump for a raddcruisers customer that I am quite happy with.
Customer bought a gturbo and was looking at upping the pump to 25psi calibration.
The trouble is with the stock setup, it is very difficult to get the pin to its fully topped out state.(fattest part.)
The wedge is in the way, the diaphragm washers are in the way..... Limited adjustability and very annoying when trying to set up for increased fuel and boost.
I have modified the top cover and diaphragm washers in such a way that you get max upward travel of the pin, to yield full use of the entire profile, with added off-boost adjustment via an actual smoke set-screw.
I will ask Bryan at radd to send me photos, because I'm an idiot and didn't take any....
Anyways. The fuel delivery came out very nice.
1000 ERPM no boost - 7.5cc +1 (almost stock)
2200ERPM no boost - 9.5cc +1 (stock)
2200 ERPM 5psi -11.5cc (damn near stock)
2200 ERPM 10 psi - 12.9 (just above stock)
2200 ERPM 15 psi - 16.2cc (about +20%)
2200 ERPM 20 psi - 18cc (about +30%)
2200 ERPM. 25+psi - 20-22cc max fuel with another 15-20% in reserve for further tinkering if desired.
This was a pretty conservative setup, and the starting fuel needed to be dropped a bit since it was over excessive...
I just wanted to point out the limitation of the factory top cover, haven't been on in awhile and figured I'd toss out some numbers. Hopefully i ll get the photos and show you guys what I mean.
Cheers
