Evo X upgrades

[scheides]

Hey one other idea, maybe the clamps from the pump outlet are loose, allowing pressure to escape back into the fuel tank? Or a ruptured hose?

I say get a hobbs switch and try it that way, and if it still causes problems then plug the second opening and revert to single pump.

I'm wishing that I'd just gone Hobbs from the start. I didn't know that FB sold the Hobbs switches and whatnot until after paying BlaqOPs for their progressive setup. They advertised that as better than their Hobbs setup and I'm a sucker for gadgets, what can I say?

Dave has the same BlaqOPs pumps but in a stock fuel pump housing and with an afpr setup from MAP. The wrench that I threw into this was the FB hanger and I still have the stock fpr. The only thing about the FB hanger that weirds me out is the suction line setup, other than that it's just a couple holes for pushing gas so what could go wrong? lol.

I had the pump housing out and took it all apart last night to replace the primary pump, so the hoses are all good. I guess I could verify the hard-line connections underneath the car.

I was going to say...mine seems to work out great.

The blaqops got me because a lot of X guys ran it with great reviews...i feel like mine worked out fine and seemed to work great.

Not gonna lie, I probably woudl have bought the progressive kit too. I urged trevor to do so on his car! It's easy to say you wouldn't do it again now that you're having problems, have to just see what happens I guess.

Like I said, i have seen it work perfect more times then not...but perhaps the sometimes i was getting backfires, possible misfires, was because of this kit.

Hopefully not what destroyed my motor??

Yeah, it's just going to take some troubleshooting to isolate. My enemy is time...neither Shane nor I have very much. lol.

I ordered a couple new fuel pressure guages. I'll definitely leave my setup better than where it started, one way or another.

If you want to try switching my AFPR setup to your car for testing purposes you can also try that, i'd just prefer if Shane did it or one of their techs, lol. No offense to you, you can take it off, but id like him to put it back :)

My car is not moving so mind as well make use of parts from it to help troubleshoot...between us we could make a single functioning EVO!!

If it comes to that then I'm inclined to plumb in a setup for myself and leave it there. It'd just be one more thing that I hadn't planned on doing. lol.

I'd still like to take a peek at yours to see how they handled the hard-line connection. The pipe seemed a bit small to just clamp a 6AN hose on there.

LOL, ok, the offer is on the table...just trying to save you some bank.

Are you the local guy who bought our hanger and had it shipped to blaqops?
