joners said:I have one, didnt pay 60 for it, and I'm in Canada.
malcons66 said:with nitrous do you think it would benfit any? or do you think that matters?
Bullitt said:jerry s... you numbers seem off to me. was this the same dyno? SAE corrected figures both days? i don't think you'd gain HP from an electric fuel pump (not much anyways), but an electric water pump should net you some. i'm willing to bet you've got a LOT more average power and torque than you did before, that is unless you didn't tune after to take advantage of the new parts.
thehueypilot said:Mustangs and Fast Ford magazine did a story on air filter/air cleaner combo's. The top filter did the worst out of all of them and they contributed that to a dirty air flow because of the two different directions of incoming air. I was interested in one until I saw that information and it makes sense.
jerry S said:It should make absolutely ZERO difference. Here is my empirical evidence from my actual experience:
Dyno run number 1. Stock water pump, stock fuel pump, torker II intake, $25 paper air filter: 296 rwhp and 396 ft lbs torque.
Dyno run nubmer 2. Meziere electric water pump, holley blue electric fuel pump, RPM Air Gap intake, K&N X-Stream filter assembly ($130+): 300 rwhp and 400 ft lbs torque.
