Was told because I'm using the same setup ...EG same FPR ...even though I'm increasing the flow it should be fine ...I was pumping in more fuel than needed before ?

I know what your saying Ross Thumbs up

I think Mei had issues when his pump was playing up & he had it mapped ?

yeah, my pump died after mapping, so it really needed another session to tidy it up, oddly it never ran lean on the RR but the flow must have been down as it was markedly different on the new pumps.

if your old pump was good, and youre on the same FPR it should be fine, so yeah no issues there, easy to keep an eye on it with a wideband, it wouldnt need a full map with sandy anyway, trimming the fuel with no other changes to the spec wont take too long

Yes I'd say you'd need the map tidying you're fuel pressure will be the same but I'd say that the flow will have changed it'll move more fuel. It may be ok but I'd recommend it being looked at before you give it death Smile

If it was flowing enough to keep the regulator at the right pressure before then it'll be the same fuelling now if the pressure is the same.

It actually looks like you have a space frame just to support the pump and swirl pot, in that picture. Nice work.

Trial fitted the bonnet I bought yesterday & it's good quality.
No better or worse than any fibreglass bonnet I've seen
The twin skin makes it very ridged.

It's Red gel coated but that's easy sorted ..

The only slight issue I'm unhappy about is where the two bonnet stays fix and when you close it it flexes far to much for my liking So I'm going to bond a couple of strips inside the edges of each side to spread the pressure...Thumbs up

My Aero catches will be fitted the weekend ...

Spray it also & Fit Ashs Water jets

One should never tug on your rod at the wrong angle.

My bonnet is single skin and attached with four catches. It's active at speed shall we say!

Mine has 5 catches and it flaps like a bird above 60 Laugh


Nice updates as always Damien, mind me asking if theres a reason you didnt stick the fuel stuff under the boot floor? Not at all a criticism, just i've seen a few people mount it there.
I stuck mine under the floor as i usually chuck loads of tools and spare wheels in the back of mine for trackdays so i wanted it all out of the way, plus a little extra safety incase theres a leak or anything. Smile
