EG9 - Stock fuel pump sufficient for track?
Hi guys...
Last Sunday went for an open track day at SIC. Before that I've upgraded/modded my EG9 quite a lot from engine, brakes, suspension, rims & tires. However, after doing about 5 laps, there's a feel like the throttle got no response as of there is no fuel supply. Then the engine will stalled. Try to start a few times but failed. So, need to tow by a SIC jeep to the pit.
After 20 minutes and the car getting colder, the engine can be started. Went back to the track, and after 6-7 laps, the problem came again. Engine dead and been tow back to the pit. Been told by my foremen that maybe its related to the fuel pump. Recommended to change to DC2R fuel pump. Is it true the above symptom is due to the fuel pump..... Hope u guys can shed some info/experience regarding my problem.
Thanks.

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jun 28 2012, 05:26 PM) should be ok me thinks... or mebbe u just have a faulty punp...or ur pump isnt sufficient for the upgraded GSR engine...kasi hentam walbro 1 shot la bro.. though recommend to get the car retuned my ex-B16A ran the tracks with stock fuel pump without issues.... what is the symptom for faulty pump? this only happened last Sunday. Previously, everything seems to be okay for normal driving. or is it also related to fuel filter or maybe plug? i'm running 6 for my current plug.

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jun 28 2012, 06:00 PM) not too sure... but ur case could also be other factors... like running 6-7 laps on high revs may be abit much for the engine... Could be... Some more I'm using 4.785 Fd with y21 GB. Most of the RPM range from 5,500 - 8,800 RPM...

QUOTE(sadako-chan @ Jun 28 2012, 08:19 PM) I tried a b18c with 4.785 FD with 9K rpm. damn nice!~ you sure it's fuel problem? misfiring also gives that same feel. Maybe coil/ignitor overheat and causes no start? Because usually most people have the small fuel pres meter at fuel rail, so can see if getting fuel or not. If you don't have, it's good to get one for insurance. Fuel pressure drop, means you got problems such as fuel leaks or faulty pump, another meter I wish included in cars is the oil pressure meter. At least can know when we're starving the engine of engine oil at the turns. My rev cut is at 9K... Having 4.785 as ur FD sure feels that ur RPM climbing vey fast to the redzone..... Btw, my formen did install a fuel regulator at the fuel rail.... Pressure still there. Main suspect is still the pump. Dunno whether the pump is sufficient for my h22a injector with high comp engine. My current plug rated 6 may also contribute to heat very fast.

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Nov 7 2012, 06:28 PM) whos car is this? looks abit like my friend's EG6 with the 211whp i was talking about here's the chart:-  Added on November 8, 2012, 8:24 amQUOTE(sadako-chan @ Nov 7 2012, 06:18 PM) 250+ psi 12ish compression likely. 11ish cr only gives about 215-230 depending on ring seal and compression, 12-13 cr is 240-270psi 13-14 cr the gauge near max or cannot read.. too high lol. ive seen only one engine before that past the 300psi mark. the numbers are based on the condition that the ring seal is very good and the engine is cold. warm usually reads slightly lower, unless if engine never run in yet. but that comp test is a big giveaway that it is not low compression. at that kind of psi reading 210whp is easy. peaky means that at 1-6k rpm, it makes less power and torque than a same engine with same cc. but wins a lot at high rpm like 6-9k rpm. an example of peaky engines is like mat salleh drag car, silap launch, car stalls. supposedly in theory this kind of cars are fast when using close gear ratio to keep it in the powerband mine is torquey, 2-2.5k rpm can wheelspin if i dump the clutch. but my peak power is poor. Added on November 7, 2012, 6:18 pmbtw nice wiretuck job means peaky power more towards track / drag setup? since both condition will be using RPM ranging 5.5-9K....

QUOTE(KU_AM21SLIPKNOT @ Nov 9 2012, 02:57 AM) Cheap right? Hehehe.. I'll try my best to answer your questions.. Exhaust- 2.3", head ported?- nope i dont think so.. Cams?- b16b... Anyway good info though since im planning to use my car daily afterwards.. Need to travel a bit from my house coz its just not worth it to 'rempit' with current weather conditions.. Kihkihkih previously, i was also using the b16b cams.... can pushed up merely 15-20whp just changing the cams + tuning.... offcourse from b16a cams in 1.8 cc engine.

QUOTE(sadako-chan @ Nov 14 2012, 09:47 AM) Check the gearbox that it works? Eheheh.  Added on November 14, 2012, 9:54 amBro better state your budget, if 1K sans ECU, mamposlah mau cari, ECU alone also already $$$ plus. Usually sold for 2.5K(or more) including original ecu. Actually I'm debating whether to sell mine or not and go for AEM. But even if I sell for 2.5K, I need to triple that amount for AEM v2 for its COP option and staged injection.  Budget around 2.5K-3.5K all in. (installation, tuning n dyno)..... u'r planning to get AEM v2 for your Turbo Killer?

QUOTE(KU_AM21SLIPKNOT @ Nov 14 2012, 09:00 PM) Weewittt Hondata? Cool leerr... How is the new engine? Rumours said that u were able to tapau the mighty FD... Congratz yooo Added on November 14, 2012, 9:13 pmIt is a good advice to replace all the CAPs.. I had an experience last year when my ECU was burned.. Smoke was coming out from the ECU. Quickly i pulled it out from its socket.. When opened the ECU, can see burning spot on the circuit.. Send the ECU for repair(dont hv budget for new one). The person who repaired my ECU said the burn was caused by the liquid leaked out from the CAPs.. Geez.. Still can use again that ecu (so he claimed) but i dont wanna take any risk. So get myself a p30 6months later. But then again he said it is a good practise for us to service all the CAPs every 5years/7years. Forgot already but yeah i think it is a good advice When your ECU burned last time, was it during normal cruising or hard driving..... mostly WOT? Last 2days when was at SIC, my aim is know the each turn better and to improve my timing..... unfortunately, due to miscommunicatoon with the organizers n SIC, the tranponders were not provided. The new engine feels very light compare to the gsr... dont know whether its the engine setup or the tuning. Itself. Didn't really pay muchattention what type of car that i overtook.... my eyes are more focusing at the RPM, braking distance and the racing line.....
