BAP vs Twin in tank.

Which way should I go to say max 700rwhp not a hp more?

I know Richard Kraus did 733 with a BAP and a 340M which is what I have.

BAP quoted from kennedydynotunning is around 260... Twin in tank will be more or less that + installation, which I prefer not to go through again :(

I made 705 rwhp hp with a twin intank setup. IMO the thing works like a charm. Also I am still running stock fuel lines.

I don't care too much for the way a boost-a-pump works. The pump was meant to run at 12 volts -- i don't like the idea of zapping it with a binch of extra juice to make it pump more.

With that said, it has been proven to handle the power... How long have setups like this lasted?

My vote goes for the twin in-tank, but I'd rather do the extra work once to avoid spending more and doing it a second time (learned things like this the hard way in the past).

I figured this pump with the racetronix harness was going to widstand 600rwhp which was my final goal.. well.. it did... and at 55psi I might add. Now I want a bit more power...

Sometimes is not enough...

Contact Thunder Racing as they sell the MSD BAP for $229.99.

IDOXLR8 -

Would you say you still had some more room to move up in HP with that pump?

I think I can hopefully push another 100 rwhp out of the setup.

Set the BAP between 16-16.5V. Any higher and the pump will start to cavitate.

Highlander

That will support how much more flow of fuel? power?

Racetronix

50-100RWHP depending on the FP and motor's BSFC.

Highlander

I do not think more than .60

actually that pump and your harness gave me good till 607 and no drop in fp.

Are you running stock lines?

Highlander

Yes sir.. RSkrause did so too and he had 733rwhp with a BAP and a bosch 255lph..

ACtually.. Thanks.. I've been very happy with the setup... very happy

For the bucks you can't beat it...

When you get the MSD BAP set the max voltage to the thick red wire going into the module to 17V. This will put you at about 16.5V in the tank as the small length of factory wire and connector lose apx. 0.5V.

Perfect.. thanks.. I will do!!!!!! THANKS!!!!

Got any specials on 75# inj?

Racetronix,

Just recieved your Walbro 340 kit with body ground upgrade and alternator wiring kit for a 96 vette...what will this setup alone handle on a big single turbo car before needing to go to the MSD BAP? thanks in advance!

Apx. 550RWHP with safety margin. Beyond that a MSD BAP is recommended.

I did 607 w racetronix harness... which means!!! it supports 600rwhp...@60psi+++

what is the difference between the BAP and the harness. doesnt the BAP raise the voltage to the pump as well as the harness? thanks

Yes the harness provides whatever voltage the alternator has to deliver. The BAP is a voltage amplifier which can boost the voltage beyond the battery/alternator's voltage.

The harness with the BAP is better than the BAP alone ;)

more "flow" of current.

Putting a BAP on the factory wiring only compounds the problem with the factory wiring.

what is a single 340 good for with the BAP?

Racetronix

650-700RWHP with factory lines.
Depends on motor's BSFC and operating pressure.

Is there any way to convert your single pump (GS340 high pressure) and harness to a dual pump and harness?

Where can we buy the dual intank setup?

No, the system is totally different.

Thats dual 255's?? also price with wiring and what hp is it good for with stock lines???

Highlander
03-10-2004, 08:00 PM
and how much will a dual intank and dual BAP hold?

Racetronix
03-10-2004, 08:24 PM
At this point the factory lines become a major issue. The head pressure at the pump gets too close to safety bypass pressure.
We have DP's running in cars with -6 TFE lines making 1000RWHP w/o BAPs.
