Upgraded fuel pump and pressure sensor
#12
Fair enough, ok. Depends what you want, i understand jammapic is offering heavy stage 1 maps that make over 130bhp, but the trade-off there is a bit more smoke and possibly a bit less reliability.

You've got your reasoning right with higher pressure meaning lower durations, etc, but i'm not convinced you'll see much benefit. Go for it though, i would be very interested to see what gains you get.

The r70 pump isn't actually rated for any higher pressure output than the standard r65 pump, it just flows more. If you're staying at that kind of power i'd suggest leaving the pump standard and installing the dv6 frps and seeing how it gets on. Also, get a free flowing exhaust, but leave the airbox standard - there is very little this side of £200 that will flow more than the standard item without compromising filtering. Certainly avoid oiled filters as they are known for munching through mafs.
