Max HP on 18V BAP on E85

[tvanlant]

I made several changes to my car over the winter (a bit more power) and now I'm running out of fuel in the upper RPM.
I've got a KB boost a pump at 18 volts. Probably mid-high 600whp. I know people are making more hp on the stock pump so I'm wondering what voltage are they at to make 700+ on the stock pump and E85?

You need a bap with a higher voltage like a jms which goes to 21v. But really A fuel system is needed. Dont replace a bandaid with another bandaid. Sell that bap and get a fuel system.

My question is when is the 18V bap maxxed on the stock pump?

It sounds like you already know the answer. 650-675whp will probably max out the stock pump on E85. If you don't want to drop the money on a complete fuel system then drop a 465lph pump in the stock hanger. It takes a little modification to the hanger but it can be done. That is what I will be doing in the next few weeks.

Do you have a link to more info on the 465lph pump in the stock hanger?

I put out 784 to the tire with a KB 17volt BAP. And ID 1000s. But like others have said just save and buy a fuel system. Especially if your running corn

we really prefer a stage 1 fuel system if your going to be running e85,

How about doing a How To for the rest of us? :rockon:

And what does the stage 1 system consist of? (It's not on your website with the other fuel systems).

I'm still very interested to hear about the 465lph in the stock hangar. Trueblue...any more info?

In a discussion with Lund sr last week he told me that a 18v bap is good for 750 rwhp.

 

[kaane]

It maxes out at 739whp on E85 at least that is when I melted a piston...

the stage 1 includes the hat, dual 342's or 465's depending on your application, regulator, lines, and everything to adapt to stock rails. returns at the regulator. $1299 shipped lower 48

Myself and a buddy of mine are both doing this over the next couple of weeks. One of us will post up pics.

Ask Dustin/CPR about installing a 465 in the stock hat. It doesn't help with additional flow. There is a restriction in the fuel lines that is limiting flow. The 465lph is not worth installing. Save your money for a fuel system.

I agree. Fuel is the lifeline of the car, single most important thing. 30-40k cars with 5-10k in mods, don't skimp on fuel.

If I remember correctly Dustin said the rate limiter is the hat and pump not the lines. He is working on a new hat with different pumps, there is thread on here to verify.

You are correct, but under 700whp it is not really worth it to spend $1300+ on a fuel system we will never really utilize. Some of us are not looking for more flow, but rather E85 safety within the flow limits of the factory system, thus the 465 pump in the stock hat.

You will UTILIZE it every time you start the car!
