General Supercharger Thread

Mine was stuck in Pennsylvannia since the 28th. Emailed csp yesterday morning and they got back to me in a few minutes that UPS had just updated the tracking showing it was in Houston but to let them know if I didn't get it in the next few days.

Not sure whats up with UPS, also got a set of supermoto wheels on the way to me and those got delayed in Tacoma,WA today, so they'll be late too...

 

Seems all of the shippers are working hard to outsuck each other.

 

No joke!

Usually FedEx forgets to deliver my stuff for a few days - says it showed up at the depot and is out for delivery, but takes still takes a few days to actually get to my house. They like to do it on Thursday or Friday so I don't see it for a week.

UPS just loses track of stuff and forgets to update tracking. I can't tell you how many times I've had a package delayed, saying it's stuck on the other side of the country, to have UPS CS tell me it's just around the corner.

I, too, ordered an FI Thermal Blanket from CSP. It only got delayed a day. Maybe somebody else's showed up at my house by mistake? No idea how it got here so fast.

 

You better believe I bought the $450 insurance for $5 on my VB shipping!

 

Still don't have mine.

 

Weren’t you the first one to order yours? Seems odd.

 

The UPS driver wanted it more..

 

I’m sending mine back tomorrow so maybe soon you’ll have yours!

 

100% most truist statement on the internet today!!!!

 

Mines in Tacoma just 45 min away. They made a super hub for UPS there and it's a cluster...
Got my snout bearings so just need to get some time to pull the SC. I changed the oil in it 20k ago so should be good.

 

Johnny is working to find out what's going on. Not that I need it right this second but it would be nice to have it in hand and not having to track yet another open order.

 

Does anyone have the ProSpeed 1000cc injectors? Are they actually 1000cc at 43.5PSI, or are they just increased pressure to get 1000cc? Or does anyone know of a 1000+cc that will fit our trucks? I got a flex fuel sensor for the Haltech, so wanted to make sure I had the flow when ready...

 

Fastlane had the Prospeed "1000s", these were the flow numbers he sent. They're really 900s:




There's one other guy I've tuned, his IG is "TrailCommand". I can't find where he said it, maybe it was texts long ago, but I thought he was running 1000cc GT500 injectors. Not sure how that worked or the specifics of them.

@snivilous
I tuned a dude a couple weeks ago and he has 1000cc injectors from Fuel Injector Clinic, part number 1000-53-11-16-8 and this was the data sheet he sent me:

 

Hell you know better than I do what I've tuned hahaha, I'll have to save those pictures.... that I posted

 

Haha. I just bookmark things that may be useful for the future...maybe not like @armyoffoo or @reywcms but wishful stuff.

 

Thank you sirs, I'll reach out to FIC to verify they physically fit, I don't mind re-pinning the injector sub harnesses if needed.

 

i have FIC 750’s. They aren’t direct plug and play tho.

they were the second choice that a tuner named Loi recommended to me. His first recommendation was Injector Dynamics which are 1050cc. He tunes a lot of Lexus IS350’s etc so I think he has good luck with them.

 

Thanks, I did a full trans flush at 60K and I have the extended warranty for another year. We will see how the tranny holds up. I am pretty light footed in my old age!

 

But they physically fit? The Prospeed injectors have to use a harness adapter, probably the same thing. I thought the harness was ugly as hell so I swapped the right plugs into the factory harness.

 

Maybe the homies @TurboKits can whip us up some 1000cc options

 

Good question. I don’t know for sure but thought I’d seen some Tundras on his dyno.

IIRC Figs Engineering ended up splicing in the FIC to the factory harness on mine too.

 

Thanks for sharing this. I was debating going the 1000cc over Jesse's 880cc, but if between only these two, and after seeing these numbers, I'll stick with Jesse.

I am feeling lazy and haven't searched yet, but what size delivery lines are you all running on the 750+cc injectors? Or are you using a different metric to decide when/what to upgrade to?

Asking since Prospeed rails are -6 fittings and XAT are -8, which may be nothing, or may be a hint. Figured I'd ask since fueling is the topic of the day.

Edit: Absolutely in on a turbokits 1000+cc option if he wants to try it. I'm assuming I'll be out of pump and injector before I hit 15psi.

 

I would opt for -8 supply and -6 return. I currently have -6 supply and return but will be at least changing to -8 supply and -6 splitting off to the rails. You would have to redo the fuel hangar/bulkhead fitting on the supply side.

 

Been awhile since I did any fluid dynamics, but there's a pressure loss calculator here: https://www.gates.com/us/en/knowledge-center/calculators/fluid-flow-pressure-calculator.html

And it ball park lines up with some random ass equation I found (the end result is pressure loss per 1ft of line).



It would seem like -6AN would be more than plenty. With that said all my fuel pressure regulators come with -10AN fittings so I run -10 for the feed Which no doubt is insane overkill, but if you're running the lines what's an extra few dollars to make it absolute overkill and never think about it again.

 

@TurboKits

 

I've also setup mine for overkill, I would prefer to have room to expand for future power levels. I have 2x450's feeding 8AN out of the basket to a single 8AN line to the rails, which splits to 8AN for each rail, then 8AN out of each rail to a single 8AN line back to the regulator, and a 6AN from the regulator back to the tank basket. Second 450 turns on at 3PSI via Hobbs switch. Both pumps have dedicate 10ga wiring bypassing the stock fuel wiring setup.

 

Race Truck hungry!

 

After having a piston come apart in my SC'd Tacoma, I'm a bit paranoid about fuel and cooling...would rather have too much than not enough.

 

100% understood! Always best to have too much than not enough...in almost everything...
