Zeldoz Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Basically I'm converting my non-turbo starlet to the 4E-FTE.Will I need to address the fuel pump?... Or can i use the standard N/A fuel pump. As I'm only going to be running the standard engine at standard boost! If not, what pump will I need? Somthing capable of around 250bhp tops for future plans!

miib14 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 should be fine with n/a fuel pump... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zeldoz Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 At what point would I need to upgrade? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zeldoz Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 Bump? Could my N/A suffice at STANDARD spec. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lilryan Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 id just get a tuninng developments fuel pump mate think there only about 40quid as uping the fuel delivery requied on the n/a pump may cause it to fail as its spent the last ow ever many years running the normal 1.3 n/a engine for the sake of 40 50quid id change it mate as you know it'll be reliable and run what you want it to then and will give you peace off mind its not gona just pack up on you at any random point Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mech5107 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Standar 4efe and 4efte pumps are the same...Also standar 2e-e pump is the same, if i'm not mistaken...Should be good up to 160-170 ps, i think.I personally got a walbro, just in case... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
raffa_mk Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 yeh 4efe is fine, but i all depends of your individiual car setup and how you want it to run like mentioned above ^Got walbro in mine and it aint a noisy one, i think it also depends on how its mounted due to the vibration sound Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Turbo Goose Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Did I read somewhere that you need a turbo fuel tank as it has a bowl in the bottom to stop air being pulled through the system? Im not sure really tbh but I just recall that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jozinobi Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Future proof her by adding a Walbro or Tuning Developments unit Jay put a Walbro in when the fte was standard and I haven't looked back.Joz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
klyfax Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Standard fuelpump can deliver to over 250 bhp. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnboy GT Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 As much as 250bhp?! I was under the impression that it was alot less than that mate?John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
klyfax Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Have a mate running 252 bhp on standard pump. They ran out of fuel, they don't know if it's the pump or the injectors that ran out.So 252 bhp is supported by the pump on a 5e-fhte, with 365 ccm injectors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
