Yes, but £160 for a fuel pump seems crazy to me.

Mate i know £160 is a lot it was the only pic i could find of the bosch 044. I will be dong a lot more looking around before i buy i just did not know where to start.

To be fair though. That pump seems to come with the holder and AN fittings included in that price. Although I really cant see the sense in fitting a pump that could easily supply fuel for about 600bhp in a Mini, when there is little chance of it ever happening. 9.85 @ 145mph

We use one of these on the hillclimber (well ben has it now)

My worry was that a high pressure injection pump would be too manly.

We use the Merlin Sytec pump with -6 in and out.

My worry was that a high pressure injection pump would be too manly. My thoughts were that to much pressure and flow could damage the FRP and cause pressure issues if your return is at all restricted. A standard Metro turbo pump is a "high pressure injection pump" Also fitted to Maestro turbo, Montego turbo , VW Golf, Cavalier Sri etc The only issue is too much flow. The pump will not create any pressure until a restriction is applied to it. ie the FPR. Edited by stevieturbo on 11th Dec, 2011. 9.85 @ 145mph

Yes. But certinally in the Metro there was resistor in the feed, which resulted in something like a 9V supply, significanty reducing its performance. If you look at the specs then they are all rated around 13.5V.

The pump will not create any pressure until a restriction is applied to it. ie the FPR. I always had mine wired straight to 12v. I used some sort of Bosch pump in my first Granada too, from a Saab turbo or something and the Malpassi regulator. Never had any problems at all. Yes there is a risk of overpowering the FPR, but certainly in my experience they do seem to handle the flow quite well and still allow pressure to go quite low. Although using an 044 would just be silly. 9.85 @ 145mph

yes i just thought ANY fuel injection pump will do us? Best 1/4 mile 13.2 seconds @116 mph

yes i just thought ANY fuel injection pump will do us? Pretty much yes. I doubt there are any around that wouldnt supply enough fuel for a turbo mini. ( assuming a proper high pressure efi pump. Not something used in a SPI low pressure setup. But there is a chance that a proper high flow pump could exceed the regulators ability to dump fuel back to maintain the low pressures required. ie, an 044 would be a very bad choice, as it is pretty much the highest flowing pump that is readily available. 9.85 @ 145mph

handy bit of info ,roughly 110 to 150 should be ample for a mini around 300 to 350 bhp :)

Thats very handy Robert, should hopefully help me locate an ideal pump to replace the SPI one in my tank. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

N-Heptane is a pure chemical and does not have the same viscosity and density as standard petrol. Hence the N-Heptane flow rate figures stated should be used as a general guide for comparison purposes only. • Bosch Fuel Pumps are designed for use with standard grade petrol. Subject to statutory warranties, Bosch does not warrant the performance characteristics or specifications of these fuel pumps if they are used with Alcohol or Ethanol based fuels or fuel additives that are corrosive.

(8 Bar) (116psi) From what I am told, the 0 580 254 044 and the B 261 205 413 are the same pump, Bosch tests the "044" to qualify it to be called a "413" (see flow chart) from this site http://www.lucasinjection.com/bosch_and_lucas_fuel_pumps.htm with enough return pipe size , i would think the 044 would work . but a smaller one may be cheaper and put less strain on the flow path . im using a 40 70 pump . The issue wont be so much with the return pipe. You could have the largest return pipe in the world, but if the regulator itself cant cope, pressure will rise. And not sure how much difference the test fluid makes. But an 044 flows a LOT more than 200lph that Bosch suggest. At the sort of pressure a carb setup would use, it would be in the region of 300lph. 9.85 @ 145mph

Couldn't you reduce the voltage on the pump if an overly beefy one came up for a good price? Say restrict the voltage to 12v On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

Although with the relatively low pressures involved it shouldnt matter too much. But reducing the voltage increases the current draw, which could have a negative impact on pump life. Either way, using an 044 would just be silly. 9.85 @ 145mph
