I didn’t use an FC2.

Is this with the key on I take it? If so you can still go to your dyno appt.

I didn’t use that big relay from Fore.

Iirc they only have one ground port. Meaning the trigger has to be positive.

If that is the case, you’ll need a separate relay (pico is a good brand; doubt the amperage on the trigger is high so 10A should work) and use the wires from pins 3 and 10 to fire the relay. The switched on power will be your pump one trigger.

You running pump two on Hobbs?

It’s basically a relay that is triggered by boost.

I set mine up to provide ground when triggered. So the switch is grounded on one side, gets boost and closes, sending ground out the other side.

Again, I used two $7 relays in lieu of the Fore piece.

So on this relay, I’ve got key on power provided to my pump relay, Hobbs switch provides ground, triggering the relay. Relay has power in and when triggered sends power to pump.

With the Fore, you’ll use the Hobbs to provide power to what’s labeled pump 2. So you’ll need key on power on one side, and going out will be a wire to the Fore unit pump 2 trigger. I’m using the same boost line that feeds the boost gauge.

I have a fore fc2 controller, I have my pumps running full time. I took the fpdm out of the car. I like it this way, been running it like this for 3-4 years.

Stock compression and bottom end? What pulley combo did you end up going with, how much boost did you see?
