What percentage of ethanol can you run with XDI fuel pump?
You can run any ethanol percentage you want.
But the ideal range for most people is between 30 and 40 percent. That is with the higher flowing xdi pump, I can't speak on their base hpfp.
We're making a lot more power around e35 vs e50.

Higher flowing and base? I haven't seen 2 options anywhere, unless you are referring to the 4Piston pump, which is made by XDI.

That’s what I’d say for the OEM pump though ?

Yes exactly! So was curious to know if you could run higher percentages than stock fuel pump and if anyone knew how much more.

I for one hope that its a grand cheaper but I probably would have better luck winning the lottery. With that being said, I dont think itll cost as much as the PRL unit at least as they didnt have to redesign this unit from the bottom up, sounds like its just been refitted with different wheels.

If it costs 2k id be pretty happy. Its a nice middle ground between the RS450 and the PRL.
Okay, I'll make it. I believe I can hit that price point. of less than $2k for certain.

Turbos are very complex in their very nature by the sentiment of trying to have your cake and eat it to.
  • We want fastest spool as possible but also want mad top end power
  • We want super reliable and great fit but want at as low as cost as possible
  • We want to it make 500+hp but I want it to drive just like OEM
  • etc
So the nice thing about the options is people have the ability to chose what works for their goals.

  • We want fastest spool as possible but also want mad top end power
  • Strike that and call me a maverick, I like my women AND turbos with that lag that presses you harder into the seat than you bargained for! Sexy
  • I grew up with Porsche and loved driving the shop 930 Turbo, I also like old 2 stroke dirtbikes so I relish the non contemporary powerbands ?
  • We want super reliable and great fit but want at as low as cost as possible
  • Yes :)
  • We want to it make 500+hp but I want it to drive just like OEM
  • Nah, we want to drive it off boost and know that the holy realm is waiting for our summons ?
